Thank you, Ted. <br>
<br>
And good luck to Kathy in her new - and challenging - job! <br>
<br>
Is it possible to receive more details how the three priorities will
be achieved? Also, what the internal restructure will mean in terms
of who is going to lead these new offices? <br>
<br>
I am sure the chapters would be more than helpful, if they see also
what their place in these changes will be. We would like to discuss
these items inside our board, and on the Facebook page, and as
others may want to do that, too, please, let us know if this is
public information, or not? <br>
<br>
Thanks! <br>
