By now many of
you have either heard via radio or for
those of you that pay attention and actually read the
minutes of the board meeting or attend club meetings
you will notice that I have had to resign from my po-
sition as Vice President of KL7AA due to employ-
ment reasons.
I continued to carry the newsletter for a few months
while the shockwave of my departure has tried to be
absorbed by other volunteers of the organization.
The time has come that I also bid farewell to being
the current newsletter editor. The newsletter now
moves into an electronic only era with the exception
of the few of you who have requested hard copies.
My duty of service as a volunteer for KL7AA has
been extensive over the last 8 years. From serving as
the TREASURER for 4 years, the newsletter EDI-
TOR for 5 years, VICE PRESIDENT, CHAIR of the
ARRL AK Convention, and of course as your ARES
Emergency Coordinator for more than 5 years.
As a Lifetime member of KL7AA I plan to remain
active with the website, preserving club archives and
historical records, work with the BYLAWS commit-
tee as well as I plan to return to Alaska once my tour
of duty is over at which point I will be happy to pick
up other AARC duties as needed or requested.
If you are willing and able to accept the position of
newsletter editor, please advise the club president at
reigns onto the next leadership. If a volunteer can
not be found, the newsletter publication after 39
years of service by volunteers will cease to exist.
Please help your radio club and step up and carry
this tradition and membership benefit onto the next
generation of ham radio operators and club mem-
bers.
It has been a pleasure working with all of you to sup-
port KL7AA. Thank you to all of you who have sup-
ported me and my outreach efforts on behalf of ama-
teur radio and KL7AA in South Central Alaska.
