Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your president for the next two years. It is indeed an honor and privilege.
This Council has a tradition of accomplishing good and worthwhile things. That is because it is made up of “YOU.” Working together is the key to success, and I am confident with your support we will indeed have another successful term. Our slate of Officers is comprised of a group of extremely talented, dedicated, capable individuals. All committees are in very competent, enthusiastic hands. I thank you all for saying “yes” when asked to serve. And, council members, I thank you for saying “yes” to the committee chairman when you are asked to serve.
You all have busy lives filled with various activities, yet you continue to take time for your club projects as well as those of Council. Why? It’s because of your love of country, community, and family. Thank you for your commitment to our wonderful past legacies and to our future environment.
The next two years will be filled with ambitious projects, new and continued, but I look forward to them fully aware that as willing teammates we will attain our goals, and in doing so will
“Preserve the Past and Plant for the Future.”
