<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have received an e-mail stating that I have no
authority for the actions I am taking or the direction I am leading the club
into.....I wish to re-iterate that I am currently the club Vice-president...and
all actions I have taken in the past few days are with the approval of Hal N4GG,
and in line with my duties as VP....Hal is going on vacation in July and will be
unavailable for most of July....so in any case I am acting until August 1st as
VP, and will assume full privileges as Pres in Aug....enough
said...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wish to restate that it is my intent to act as
moderator for any and all topics that come up on line....I have a vested
interest in this club and its ultimate success...Bill Fisher came to me in 1997
and indicated that we needed a contest club...the Dixie Dx'ers had faltered and
was no longer viable....Bill and I both saw the need for a club that represents
the SE states and fulfills a true need to foster contesting...with those goals
in mind Bill donated the web resources....and I agreed to help in what ever
manner I could, but remain in the back ground...today it is necessary that I
step forward and take my turn at the helm of this club...we have a great
tradition that has not just taken place over night...our great success with the
Ga QSO party is just but one of the club successes that we can be proud of....we
have honor and integrity back in our leadership of the SECC...and we will be
making significant score contributions to our aggregate club scores in the
coming months....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am extremely proud of the reputation that Hal has
achieved as the past president....he has risen to the task and has done what has
been necessary to keep this club heading in the right direction...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>With these things in mind, I encourage each person
to work with me and my officers this next year...we will continue to make the
SECC and great contesting club....</FONT></DIV>
