Since then, he has done the lions share of the work and provided much-needed relief for me. The timing was perfect. I was getting burned out and had given notice that I needed to focus on my other responsibilities. Due to Larry’s hard work and his always positive attitude, I have regained my enthusiasm and energy and will remain on the team for the foreseeable future. It is individuals like Larry, who keep this club going. When you see him, give him an elbow bump and let him know that you appreciate his hard work. We continue to receive great content from you, our readers. In this issue we have Melanie Randall’s article about the Watkins Glen DE last month, and you will also find that The Lines continues to re- ceive member updates. We hope that they will keep coming, even after COVID has run its course. Election season is upon us. In this issue you will find the 2021 board nominations from the nomination committee.
