Once again you are jumping to conclusions. I have never said to you personally that I would not ask you to run the program again, have I? No you are going by hearsay. If I win the presidency and wish to ask someone else to run the program to give them the experience there is nothing wrong with that. However if no one else chooses to rise to the occasion I may very well ask you to run the BELL Academy again. Please get the facts before you accuse me of having a personal agenda. Once again this list serve is for facts that are important to our affiliate. And not for speculation or casting disparaging comments, even subtle ones on other people.

Thank you so much for your endless hard work and dedication to this program. as a young leader on the come up in the Federation, I am happy to see this program be so successful. This is something that I did not have, or know about, growing up. I hope whoever takes it over puts in as much passion, hard work, and dedication as you and your volunteers did.
