Well, what can I say?? For the first time in what seems like and eternity I no longer hold a seat at the table in the Chapter hierarchy. Clearly it hasn't been an eternity just seemed so. It was only 7 or 8 years, and it amazes me that others have opted to serve this chapter for just as many years voluntarily. The reason, of course, is that this is the greatest chapter in all of EASA! Okay I'm biased but I stand by my opinion. Even when the president makes a boneheaded scheduling mistake and holds a meeting during Easter weekend, we managed to have a decent turnout.
Year after year our spring technical seminar fills completely. Our spring meeting in Moab has been steadily building steam since the year off. Whether we go bowling, Jeeping, hiking or touring the river in jetboats, it seems the consensus is the group has a good time. The technical/educational portion of our spring meeting has really taken a step forward. The last 3 Region 7 Directors have done a great job for the region in Reno, since I've been around, and I hope that continues because there are many more golf courses I need to explore. The National convention is in Vegas this rea, right in our backyard, so I hope I'll see many of you down there. I could make this a long, drawn out, detailed retelling of the last few years, but I'm not going to. To those of you that know me that should come as no surprise. It's been an honor and a privilege serving this chapter and I wish the new blood the best of luck. It's like herding cats with this group sometimes but they are semi tame not feral. Until we meet again best regards Derek Peterman
