  • Winter 2008 Newsletter
    PAEP Winter 2008 Newsletter President’s Message Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a save and enjoyable holiday season! PAEP has many exciting things coming up in 2008. First I would again like to congratulate our new board members; Virginia Bailey, Mike Kenawell, Jeff Luzenski and Camille Otto. I would also like to thank everyone who ran for the board; it is great to see so much interest in our organization. I hope the people who were not elected this year will look for other ways to be active in the organization and consider running for future board positions. I would like to congratulate our new officers, who were elected at the January Retreat. The retreat was held again this year at the Ned Smith Center for Nature and Arts in Millersburg. As you may have guessed by now, I was elected President. The rest of the board was elected as the following: Jeff Prawdzik, Vice President; Deb Henson, Treasurer; and Virginia Bailey, Secretary. Speaking of the retreat, we had a very productive day setting goals to work on some long range planning this year. We are doing well as an organization and seem to have a good handle on where we are, but we need to decide where we are going. We are also going to work on ways to get PAEP out to more people. Bob Hosking and Brian Oram have put together a public service announcement for PAEP which can be played on the radio. We are looking for other ways to get our name out.
