The trustee terms of Sam Nelson and Sally Woodmansee expire this year. Sally decided not to run again; Sam Nelson is willing to continue to serve. Heartfelt thanks to Sally, who has made valuable contributions to the board and the Center as a whole, including serving as secretary for many years. December's call for nominations resulted in the nomination of Susan Schepp for trustee. Members present at the Annual Meeting will be asked to confirm Sam and Susan as trustees. Both were asked to write brief bios for this News Update.
