[Nfbf-l] More Pertaining to NFBF Elections

[Jim Ellsworth]

Hi and good morning Federation family,

First of all let me say that I do intend on running for re-election to my
board position on the NFBF state board.  I will need to keep this short and
to the point for now since I am at the breakfast table and heading off to
work soon so time is short for now.

Due to my battle with cancer I have not been able to attend the last NFBF
convention.  That hasn't kept me down though.  I have done as much as
possible to remain active in life, my lovely family and the NFBF.

Now that my cancer is in remission I am stronger and ready to move forward
to improve what we already have and that ladies and gentle men is a strong
and flourishing affiliate.  I am ready to be more active in my board
position if I am re-elected of course.  I am looking forward to seeing all
of you in Ft. Lauderdale, my city of birth so I am returning home.  I just
know that this is going to be a super convention.  I am looking forward to
hosting the state seminar on technology.  It has always been one of the
highlights to convention for me.  

I would enjoy very much hearing from any of you who would like to express
ideas on how we can make the affiliate stronger.  Well, let's go have fun at
the 2015 state convention of the NFBF.  I will write again soon when I have
a bit more time and am not so rushed.

Thank you all,
Jim Ellsworth

Good Morning Federation Family,

                I am pleased that there is such an excellent response to my
e-mail requesting to hear from those seeking re-election or election to the
NFBF Board of Directors. It helps tremendously for members to know more
about the candidates. 

                Thanks so much to Paul, Jorge and Denise for letting us know
that you are running for office. Thanks too to Marion for negating rumors
that he does not plan to run for election. I am hoping that we will also
hear from Dan indicating whether or not he is seaking a third term as state
president and If Lenora and Jim Ellsworth are planning to run for another
term. 

                Everyone, I'm certain you will agree that it has been
helpful to also read posts from some of our leaders pertaining to convention
plans and other related topics. Peter, I'm glad that you have explained more
about the job's seminar that you will be co-facilitating. Denise is counting
on us to have resolutions ready to present on Friday evening when that
committee gathers. Anything we can do to bring door prizes and auction items
will be most appreciated. Let's keep this momentum going!!

 

 

With warmest regards,

 

Kathy Davis 

NFBF Past President
