Darryl and List, I most emphatically agree with your praise of Norbert. From a personal point of view, Norbert's dedication to and performance in his position sets a standard that exceeds the norm. [no pun intended]
Thank you Norbert.

>> Hi Maria.
>> I'm catching up on all the recent election discussion, having just returned from a couple weeks on the road (including the Denver show). From "Three of our directors have terms ending this year ...", I gather we are voting for THREE board members? Just wanted to clarify this, as I'm not 100% sure.
>> I think we have a fine group of candidates and I'm wishing I could vote for more than three. ;^)

>> September comes around pretty quickly every year and in the IMCA that means we have prepared for the yearly elections. Three of our directors have terms ending this year and two have decided to re-run for a position. The three whose terms are ending are Norbert Classen, Anne Black, and Jeff Kuyken. This year we say goodbye to our reigning president, Norbert Classen, who is retiring, and Anne Black and Jeff Kuyken have decided to re-run for board positions.
>> It is my pleasure to announce our 2010 Candidates for the Board of Directors.

Questions directed to the candidates are welcome.
>> The Campaign will end October 1, 2010 at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time.
