John, I thought Sue Paolini was running for office.   Did she withdraw?

[John W Blehm]

Yes, back in June.

Thank you John, Gina, Beth, Russ, Jeannette and Jensen. I'm glad we have such quality individuals running the Alliance!

It was a pleasure working on with you, Duane, a few years ago as club officers. 

Beth, Gina and I are current officers and Jeannette is a past President and Secretary/Treasurer of the club.  Russ and Jensen will be newbies to the board of directors and I look forward to working with them all.

It was about 8 years ago that I first met Jensen when she and her father, Doug, come to my place to pick up some birds.  She is now in her last year of college and still breeding and exhibiting Ameraucanas, along with some other breeds.  I'm sure she is the youngest member to ever serve as an officer of our club and I think it is great to have this dedicated young lady willing to step up and work with this "alliance of folks focused on the promotion of standard bred Ameraucanas".

I thought Bob Rennolet was running for director too?

[John W Blehm]

He was thinking about it and would have if a position didn't have someone running for it.
