Before reviewing our current and projected state of affairs, I would like to express thanks and appreciation, on behalf of the membership, to last year’s SABC Council and committee chairpersons for their service to the Club. Robert Haynes provided outstanding leadership during his tenure as President and a special thanks is extended for his efforts in helping prepare a handsome SABC color brochure that will be especially useful in future promotions and recruitments. Copies are available upon request to any member who would like to use them to help promote SABC.
