Thanks to generous contributions from you, the members of ODV, the following announcement will be made to ARRL staff today. "The members of the ARRL Board of Directors have long recognized that the ARRL could not exist or provide the services it does without the skill, dedication, and caring of a talented staff. As a group, we would like to acknowledge the people who are the heart and soul of the ARRL. We have ordered a bench with the following inscription, 'In appreciation of ARRL staff, with gratitude for their dedication to furthering ARRL’s mission. [date] ARRL Board of Directors.' The bench will be installed in the break area and dedicated to the staff we count on." Thank you all for your participation and support. 73, Art K0AIZ -- Arthur I. Zygielbaum, K0AIZ ARRL Midwest Division Director Member, Executive Committee Member, Programs and Services Committee Member, ARRL Foundation Board ARRL - The National Association for Amateur Radio®
