Greetings all,

I'm finally just recovering from the VCF Festivus celebration this past weekend. It was a lot of fun and there was plenty to eat and do.

During the event, we announced those who have received enough votes from our membership to be elected to the two available open positions on the VCF Steering Committee. Both Dave McGuire and Jason Perkins reached the end of their term. Jason did not opt for a nomination in this year's election. Dave McGuire was an incumbent nominee.

With the election results tallied, the two open positions will be filled by (in no particular order):

Thomas Gilinsky Ian Litchfield

We, the Steering Committee, want to personally congratulate and thank both of them for running for the open positions and winning the election.

Dave McGuire, Marcus Mera, and Dave Shevett, we thank you for running in the elections. Next year, there will be at least three open positions for the VCF Steering Committee, you are encouraged to throw your hat in the ring at that time if you wish. The same goes for any mailing list member who wishes to run for Steering Committee positions next year.

On behalf of the VCF Steering Committee, congratulations to our newest Steering Committee members, and here's looking forward to a new and exciting direction for VCF in 2024!

Jeff Salzman Chairman VCF-MA Steering Committee
