For those not at DC for the GMA, I have three priorities this year;<br /><ol><li>Bring the Sub Regional Program to fruition. This was a Project Team that Sharon Coulson set in motion with Janet Paul Rice as the Team Leader. The Board of Directors will review a proposal at the November Board meeting in Portland, OR. If approved we will finish this project.</li><li>Sustainability is the second priority this year. For the last few years the Industry Advisory Committee has had a focus on what our industry members are doing in this field. I have appointed Tom Kelly, Chief Sustainability Officer for University of New Hampshire to be the Guest Director on the Board of Directors. His insight will help determine the direction we as an association should take on this subject.</li><li> And lastly, communication methods, I have appointed a Project Team to review how the association can use the various channels to communicate with the diverse membership.<br /></li></ol><br />This is an open line to have a conversation so... let me hear from you.<br /><br />Mark<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7128789398117538874-6131038875096308883?l=nacufs-presidentsblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mark Kranerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15977448247536187444noreply@blogger.com0
