I do have some sad news to report. Howard Ford has passed away. His son let us know. Howard was oneof the founding Members of the Club and a past President as well.The New Constitution was voted on and passed at the December Meeting. If you want a copy emailed toyou please email president@cvwa.org.Remember, nominations for the new Board will be held at this Meeting. The Club really needs newpeople to fill all of the positions. Most of the old Board Members have served for many years and will notbe continuing. With the new Constitution structure, Board positions are flexible. This is your chance togive back to the Club without overly committing too much time. Again, please consider donating yourtime and energy to keep the Club healthy and strong.Elections are held at the February Meeting and the New Board is installed in March.Hope to see you at the meeting on WEDNESDAY JANUARY 10!TomTom Welz, PresidentConejo Valley Woodworkers AssociationGoodies for Free***Early Bird Special***Arlen’s done it again!
