We had our final meeting of the year and annual pizza party on Friday, December 14 at the Girl Scouts of America campus at 1231 Upas Street.
We also had our annual officer elections. All elected officers were reelected to another term for 2019. Please be aware, we are currently debating a proposal to change the term for elected officers from one year to two and to add a new elected post of Assistant Treasurer. Please contact Bob Ekstrom (president@ipmssd.org) for details.
Our volunteer officers also agreed to continue at their posts with the following exceptions:
- Scott Hazel has agreed to take on the mantle of Contest Coordinator next year, taking over from Manny Gutsche. Manny has done an outstanding job these last several years and the club thanks him for all of the hard work he has done on its behalf.
- Ethan Idenmill will continue to act as webmaster, but has asked for volunteers to fill the new position of Club Photographer. This would involve taking pictures at all of the club meetings as well as at the annual Model Expo. Please contact Ethan (webmaster@ipmssd.org) for details.
Tony, Gary and other members of IPMS San Diego enjoy the pizza
