President Bill Eberle is barely in the chair and I am honored to say I was asked to be part of his newly appointed Special Projects Working Group. This group will be headed up by Rich Becker and will look at various new ideas and concepts that have been floating around that the Association would like to look into and test in order to reach out to new members.

I was pleased to hear about this project and am anxious to help try out new ideas. This action shows me that there is new attitudes and some interest in experimenting with new ways to look at membership.

Outstanding, Mark.  It was my impression that Bill is more comfortable with the idea of change and I think this confirms that.  I also think the new ED is willing to entertain changes to update the Association.

Thanks, I have no doubt I'll be bouncing concepts off of all of you as they come along.

I can't believe we lived to see this day. Great job, Mark. Keep up the good work. You have the full support of the COHORT Chapter.

PS - COHORT Reunion is at AAW this year. That could get you thrown off the committee real quick

Congrats Mark. Looks like your ideas that we discussed last June in the Motorhome are coming to fruition.

Good news indeed!

It sounds like the new administration may be receptive to new ideas.

Mark, congrats on your invitation to the President Special Projects Board.

Congratulations, Mark.  Between work, family, P-Net, and now this, I can only assume that you never sleep.

I sleep, but only after those plus www.505thpantherassoc.com and www.offdutygamers.com

LOL. Someone on facebook sent me the definition of 'relax' in case I wasnt aware of the word or its meaning. But I havent had time to read it.
