Spring 2006 -- By Susan Prechtl

Do you have a little extra time that you could give to PBA? Do you have a vision for how you’d like to see PBA progress in the future? Are you a person who can look “whole picture” and balance the wants of a few with the needs of the entire membership? If so, please consider submitting an application (found elsewhere in this newsletter) to become a PBA board member.

PBA welcomes all members to consider becoming a volunteer and opportunities become available regularly. In addition to having three openings on the board, there is an opportunity for a newsletter editor.

Theresa Esterline has been the PBA newsletter editor for the last two years. During that time she has upgraded the format of the newsletter, increased advertising revenues and instituted some popular features. PBA has greatly appreciated all that Theresa has accomplished and she will be sorely missed. Theresa has a busy life and thinks now would be a good opportunity to allow someone else to take over the newsletter. However, she will remain as Webmaster. If you think you might be interested in this valuable PBA position, please contact me. If you have questions about the newsletter itself, I’m sure Theresa will be happy to answer them directly, so feel free to contact her as well. Contact information is located elsewhere in this newsletter.

PBA thanks ALL of its volunteers who give unselfishly of their time and talents!
