To My Friends,
    I write this last note with a lot of gratitude and some regret. I have had a wonderful year as your president and thank you for giving me this opportunity a second time. I hope it has also been a great year for all of you. As I have said more than once, this club is a group of fantastic, capable ladies who make the job of being president an enjoyable one.
    I would love to list everyone who has made an important contribution this year, but know that I would miss someone. I am going to limit my comments to your board, and please know that I am also truly grateful to everyone else for your support. The officers: to Connie for four terrific socials & her agreement to be president next year; to Nancy who ended up with twice the work she had bargained for when her co-chair Janet found a job; to Emilie who kept our directory updated & organized; to Anne who chronicled our activities; & to Grace who always knew our finances were secure. The board: to Lynne for editing the website & answering our email; to Diane for a wonderful newsletter every month; to Lois Salmons & all her interest group chairs for keeping us busy; to Lois Rhodes & Geri for making our coffees scenic & delicious; to Sheila, Janice, & Terri for making everyone feel welcome; to Cheryl for being a "best friend"; to Genevieve for always giving us somewhere to go; to Donna for hours of typing by-laws & policy & procedure; to Diane and Laurelie for a wonderful fashion show; and to Bobbi for my scrapbook. Last but not least, a big thanks to a Newcomer husband, Phil Crocker, who does such a terrific job with our website.
    I sincerely hope you will give Connie & her team the great support that you have given me.
     -Katherine
