PRESIDENT'S REPORT
Welcome From the Chapter President
On behalf of the Executive and Chapter members, I want to welcome you to another year in the life of our organization and in your retirement from the teaching profession. For the first time in our Chapter’s history we have exceeded the 2,000 member threshold. We’ve had a busy year and you’ll find updates on many of those events throughout the newsletter.
The printed publication this year has been expanded to eight pages and includes graphics, photographs and colour. If you receive your copy via email, there are four additional pages with photographs. We will show these at our fall Assemblies in case you are receiving the mailed version and would like to see them. We will also post the newsletter on our Chapter website. Thank you to the many people who contributed to making this year’s newsletter possible. Your input and help is appreciated greatly.
The list of those who will serve in the coming year as members of the Chapter Executive is on page six. As we welcome new members to the Executive team, we also want to express our appreciation to those who are leaving the Executive this year: Winniefred Warren, Lynn Code and Jeff Ruf. We have valued your contributions and we look forward to your continued involvement in the Chapter. New to the Executive are: Patrick Elkington, Sandra Hill, Joyce Hoffman and Robert Wuschenny.
A special thank you is extended to Greg Lawrence, who served us extremely well over the past three years. Greg is not leaving the Executive but will now serve as Past President.
As the second-largest Chapter in the province, we have a significant impact in the STS family of 11,571 members and also in the community. We are always looking for new ideas and new volunteers and welcome your input. We have a Chapter website at reginachapter.sk.ca which updates information on a regular basis and also can be used to contact the Executive. In addition, we have a Facebook page at: STS Regina Chapter. Currently, the positions of Vice-President, Social Media Moderator and Visitation Coordinator are vacant. If you are interested or know of someone who might be, please contact me. My personal contact information is as follows: socrates@sasktel.net and phone number (306) 535-7557. Feel free to email or call.
Doug Still, President
