Hey, board, if it is a hassle for me to keep the job as Advertising
Editor, I'll be glad to give it up. I am working on renewing 50+
shopping section ads and it is more horrible than pulling teeth.
The cut off was Dec 15. I sent out renewal notices in Sep. Still
have advertisers with millions of excuses and still not able to give
final report to the editor. It is the same thing every year. I
know we want to keep our advertisers but too many of them simply put
this off until after the last moment and then they decide they want
to replace their ad and expect the editor to fix it, make a new one
for them, etc.
So, I can gladly do without the job if anyone else would like it.
Gordon never really took over from me so I don't see what the
problem might be.

Subject: Re: [AISdiscuss] AIS Position Appointments
As is the policy of the AIS, the BOD must approve all
appointments requested by the President. Since Ron is just
continuing in his position as Advertising Editor I do not
believe a motion is necessary. However even though the
Strategic Planning Committee is an Ad Hoc Committee I make the
following motion:
"That we approve Andy Rivarola as the Chairman of the
Strategic Planning Committee"

Hello all,
I'm
pleased to announce two appointments today.
The
first is a continuation of the Ad Editor position, and
I'm very happy to tell you that Ron Killingsworth will
be continuing to serve as the Advertising Editor for
IRISES. Ron has admirably performed the duties of this
position for the past few years. Its not so much a
welcome back (since he never really left the position),
as it is a Thank You Ron, and we're happy you're staying
with us !
And,
I'm equally happy to announce that Andi Rivarola will be
Chairman of the Strategic Planning Committee for the
American Iris Society. Most of you know Andi. He is
currently the Social Media Manager for AIS, serves on
the PR committee and the 2020 Celebration Committee;
and at the AIS Fall Board meeting in Omaha, Andi was
elected Second Vice-President of the American Iris
Society. Andi will be reaching out to many of you for
information, ideas, suggestions in the coming weeks and
months. And, if you have ideas and thoughts about how
we can move AIS forward, providing better services and
products for our members, building our membership,
developing our resources, and strengthening
our organization into the future, please don't hesitate
to contact Andi and me with those comments.
Thank
you,
Gary
