As
with any quality endeavor, I am not alone in the development
of this issue. You
can find a list of contributors and committee members near the
end of this issue. If
you find it convenient or happen upon the opportunity by
chance, please thank them for participating and making this
medium work for you.
In
this issue, you won’t want to miss reading “A
President’s Pause”. It
contains the opening remarks from the Fall VASFAA conference.
As many of you were unable to attend the conference due
to budget constraints, this is an opportunity to catch up on
some of the flavor of the conference.
In addition, Zita Barree contributed additional
conference highlights, which you should find interesting.
There is conference news and information regarding the
upcoming Spring VASFAA conference as well as the SASFAA
conference, which is only two weeks away.
This
issue highlights two VASFAA members who we all
know and are running for SASFAA office.
If you are not attending the SASFAA conference,
please go to www.sasfaa.org
and click on 2003 Elections.
Scroll down to the option for accessing
the ABSENTEE BALLOT.
This is your opportunity to support
our two VASFAA candidates for SASFAA office.
Guy Gibbs is running for President-Elect. Marvin Ragland is running for Treasurer.
Each of them has a long history of VASFAA
involvement and deserves your support.
Stop whatever you are doing and vote for
VASFAA in the SASFAA elections.
If you need motivation, consider this –
your inaction is a vote for NCASFAA.
That’s right, if you do nothing, you are
supporting candidates from North Carolina for
both positions.

right now!
VOTE……..VOTE…….VOTE……...…VOTE!
