GE Jim! A great year and a good meeting. Rick, Holly and I made it back to Little Rock safely after the late and icy departure and some flight adjustments. I hope all others made it home safely. 73 David A. Norris, K5UZ Director Delta Division Sent from my iPhone On Jan 18, 2015, at 8:51 PM, "James F.

Agreed!
A great Centennial year with an exceptional celebration, fantastic operating event, and now a very productive board meeting!
The sky's the limit! (except for moonbounce, of course!)
Hope everyone has made it home safely. My flight was delayed, but I did get out just before they closed the runways in CT.
Thanks to all!

From my view we rocked it this weekend. Thank you, one and all, for a very productive start to ARRL's second century of board leadership. Job well done.

Here is a summary of the Board actions during the just-concluded meeting. It's been a while since the list was this long.
I know some of you have been delayed in returning home. I hope everyone's travel is safe and without too much disruption. It's still raining here.
