Highlights of the annual meeting

Director Harlan Mehlhop stepped down after 18 years on the board. As our parlementarian, and a very well informed member, he will be missed. Thanks Harlan! We also lost Nicki Veith, whom everyone has seen at our events, and was key to the planning and running of them. And lastly Todd Johnson who was a relatively new member.

They are being replaced by Steve Kaitz for area 4, Rich Draheim for the "at large" position, and Kent Reeves for area 2 position.

Thank you Kent for taking over the position of Gambling Manager these past few years. It can be a difficult job, and the Board appreciates it. As he steps down from Gambling manager he will stay on the Board as an area 2 director.

Lastly welcome Becky Beyer to the position of Gambling manager in the next few months. Thank you for stepping forward!
