Thank You to All Outgoing Board Members
2/25/2007

As the New Board of Directors prepares to meet, I’d like to say Thank you to all of our outgoing Board Members for their years of service.

Bill Pulvermacher (2006-2007)
Ruth Holliday (2005-2007)
John Carvin (2005-2007)
Ray Handley (2003-2007)

There are many years of service represented in these folks who’ve helped bring the WGA to be what it is today. If there is one reason the WGA will be as successful in the future it is because we are able to stand on the shoulders of these giants.

Thank You.
