BOARD ELECTIONS – IT IS THAT TIME AGAIN – OPEN HOUSE TO ALL CLUB MEMBERS ON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6th, 730 PM at the home of Dana Moss 10645 NW 83rd Court – Creekside in Heron Bay (either the north entrance or Scary road entrance is fine). All positions are open and up for nomination. As previously mentioned, I am stepping down after 10 years as president. Also, I would like to thank Ann Bengtson, Tess Williams, Mark Darley, and Alana Miller for their service this past year as they are stepping down as well. Running for office is Dana Moss and Susan Frezer and Melissa Schwartz (thanks for your service this past year and continued involvement). We will have Treasurer, Secretary, and member at large positions open and encourage those that want to set a new course for the club to join our three board members listed above in doing so.

Personally, I want to thank Melissa and Ann in particular for hanging in there and partnering with me to make the club what it is today for our members. I could not have done it without you both and am very grateful that you both have been by my side through thick and thin.

I also want to, once again, thank all of you reading this as you put your trust in me to get the things done for the club to make your running experience the best it could be.

MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL – Once again, we will be having early bird renewal and Active.com will have the price adjusted to reflect this starting on June 1st – June 30th. Look for a reminder announcement toward the end of May.

Have a great week,
