Caryl, I'm really sad you are not directing the committee's time table and activities, like last year. We should all thank you for your hard work. I'm also sorry you had no time to move forward with the funding activities, you promoted early this year. I agree and I hope everyone (every year)

I would assume they do wish to stand for re-election. The publicity on this has been terrible. I don't know who is in charge, but they should have made sure they sent several reminders of deadlines to file for candidacy. In fact, was there ever an announcement sent out to all of the membership
