Our class has not had an active executive committee for years. On a recent conference call our class officers agreed that we need to reestablish our class executive committee. The executive committee constitutes the policy-making body of the class. It acts on behalf of the class in such matters as filling class officer vacancies between reunions and evaluating appropriate class projects to be funded by our class dues. If you are interested in volunteering to serve on the executive committee, pleas contact our president, Ken Hall, at hallken@ optonline.net or me at the e-mail address below.
