Secretary
–Diane French
I knowwe have a lot to cover tonight, so I promise to keep this short. Because this is
the LAST time I will have the opportunity to speak to this membership as a Board of
Director, I just want to say THANK YOU for thosewho have supportedme the last nine
years. A special thanks to P/C JimWhyard for his persistence to getme to run that first
time. I started with Publications for 5 years, Activities for one year, then Supplies and
this last year Secretary. Iwould like to saywhat apleasure it has beenworkingwith this
Flag and Board this year. I think we should ALL give a SPECIAL thanks to Commodore
Don & Barbara Vanover for making it such a FUN year. If anyone has any thoughts of
running for office, I highly recommend it. Youwill get somuchmore out of it than you
canpossibly imagine. Youonlyget out of this clubwhat youput into it.
I saw a sign at the Leader Dog for the Blind in Rochester that reads, "Volunteers are
unpaid, not because they areworthless but because they are priceless." So, asmy last
act, on behalf of my fellow officers, I would like to make a motion to double the pay
checksof ALLof theofficers.
Forme, most of you have heardmy story, the opportunity to serve on this Board came
at theperfect time inmy life. My husbandhad just passed away and at the same time I
lost my job. Being on this Board gavememy "purpose in life" back. You have no idea
what youhavedone forme. And for that, I can't thankyouenough.
Supplies
–HughVestal
