2011-2012 Chapter Board Listing

At one of our District meetings we had a request to display all the Chapter Board Members for all chapters. The reason being is so that we would increase communication between chapters officers. This will also allow (as an example) for a treasurer of one chapter (or any of the board members) to communicate with another officer on another chapter board. The list is attached for your use.

Update: A few Chapter officers have asked that we not display some of the personal information on this listing. Due to this all info was removed except the name of Chapter, the name of the board member, the office held and an email listing. Anyone wishing to have their email address removed or changed to a generic listing please let me know. anthony.stencel@sbcglobal.net We hope this change will take care of the original need yet help with privacy issues.
