Thanks to all the BOD candidates, volunteers
I just wanted to thank all of the Board candidates this year. This was a great slate of candidates, and I hope each one of them will run again in the future.
The other candidates this year were: Jim Logan, Dean Dolph, Stan Foster, Richard Lidke, Don Shoebridge, and Ora Cook.
A lot of thanks have been passed to Gary Goldsberry and Dave Prater - and they deserve our gratitude for years of service. I would also like to express thanks to Ora Cook, a long-time Board member and an icon in the gyro world. Ora and Ann also deserve our thanks for years of arriving at the conventions early to get the field and facilities ready, and for working long and hot hours in the canteen to feed the hungry masses.
The PRA is nothing without our volunteers who do so much for just the love of the people and the sport. Thanks to all the hard working volunteers at Mentone this year and every year!
PS: How many of you noticed the great PA system on the grounds - you could hear the announcements and music almost everywhere! When you see or talk to Tony Stiles, please thank him for this and everything else he does so generously for the PRA!
At the risk of leaving someone out, I'm going to stop here, but there were many others who deserve our gratitude too!
