ELECTIONS
The results are in for all positions and are posted at the hall. I would like to congratulate all those who ran, won or lost, your participation in this election was appreciated. There were many new faces running for office and the eagerness of newer members alongside older members to be involved in this local demonstrated my belief that we as a local will continue to thrive for many years to come.
