E-MAIL FROM YBA PRESIDENT SHARON KARLSON 12-13-14

FOR ROGER'S BLUEGRASSERS WHO ARE NOT MEMBERS OF THE YELLOWSTONE BLUEGRASS ASSOCIATION:

We had our annual meeting of the Yellowstone Bluegrass Association last night at our Friday night jam.  We went over the latest up-date information for the YBA's potential for becoming a teaching organization involving the Lincoln Centers' Adult Education Evening Program, and received many positive comments.  There is still much discussion involved before we do this, but will keep you all informed of future plans.

     Here are the new Board of Directors/ Officers for 2015

1.  Sharon Karlson........President

2.  Trent Indreland........Vice President

3.  Scott Moore.............Sec/Treasurer

4.  Wade Steinmetz.......

5.  Paul Dextras............

6.  Edd Tremblay...........

7.  Mark Millard.............

 Comments:  1)  Good job   2)  I thank all of the present members officers for their interest in keeping the organization going.  Good luck and keep it up.   3)  Wonderful job everyone, for what you do for YBA.  Many thanks!

There was 1 write in vote for Dave Nelson,  and 1 for Laura Steinmetz.   Altogether we had 40 votes

     Also,  thanks to Mark Millard,  the YBA will be set up with its own Facebook page as well,  so look for that in the near future.

Thanks everyone!  Its been a good year!   Lets keep pickin!

ROGER'S NOTE: There was so much feedback from the meeting that I believe Sharon Karlson said they should have more than one general meeting during the year. If that happens you can be assured she will e-mail us. She does an excellent job in communicating with the membership.
