Joining the board in January 2000 will be Jon Clark, Debbie Dyke, Gert Gottschalk, and Mike Rushford. Jon is new to planning meetings, while Debbie, Gert and Mike have been attending as advisors-at-large for quite some time. Debbie has also accepted the role of hospitality chair. She will, however, need help from all of us to prepare and clean up the comestibles at each general meeting.
Brand new member Steve Anderson has graciously offered to copy and collate the handouts for general meetings. We thank him for taking this load off Dave. Mike Spreitzer will contribute his time and assistance in printing Prime Focus each month at Xerox Corporation. The entire club thanks Mike and Xerox for this tremendous donation of goods and effort on our behalf.
Signe and Jim McIntire have agreed to continue their excellent work in distributing the newsletter every month. Please watch for a January Prime Focus tribute article thanking past officers and board members.
