TO: RRCA STATE REPS AND OTHER RRCA FRIENDS
FROM: BOB HOLMES, AT-LARGE MEMBER II, RRCA BOARD OF DIRECTORS SUBJECT; MANAGEMENT ISSUES AND THE RRCA DATE; MARCH 30, 2008

I hope this communication finds you in the best of health. I have just recovered from a major health challenge, and I am finally “back on the road again.”
Hope see you at the 50th anniversary convention in May. We have two major agenda items on the business meeting agenda: 1) Amendments to the By Laws from a Task Force on which I served, and 2) the election of five new Board members. Please review the By Laws document carefully concerning such matters as proxies, term limits, and other major recommendations and feel free to contact me about them.
