Ok folks something positive, for a change. I have been around STF for about 9 months now and in that time there have been a few people who have been consistent positive contributors to the club. Mike Bourdaa and Mike Ballway (When he is around<G>) come to mind at once. There are many others as well.
Another person who is always there and plugging away at his job has been Greg Hertzsch. Greg has served STF for many years in a variety of roles. Two terms as President and he is on his second consecutive term as Director of the Personnel Department. Greg has demonstrated his willingness to aid the club in any way he can and that kind of loyalty and leadership should be rewarded. In the time I have known him and he has helped countless new members get started in the club that might have otherwise left.
Therefore Fleet Captain Greg Hertzsch is hereby promoted to the rank of Commodore, effective immediately.
Two other people who have served this club well in my opinion are Nikolle Burchett and Alan Felts. While they are not the flamboyant superstars that others may be they are always helpful and they are always here to serve and assist.
Therefore, Captain Nikolle Burchett and Captain Alan Felts are hereby promoted to the rank of Fleet Captain, effective immediately.
Finally, I have to respect the recommendation of my Vice President. He has for a couple of months now been touting Seamus Hughes for the rank of Fleet Captain. Colin has stated countless times that he has never had a better Assistant Fleet Commander in his long STF tenure.
With that said, Captain Seamus Hughes is promoted to the rank of Fleet Captain effective, immediately.
Seamus you have no idea how tempted I was to make this effective on April 1st.<G>
