Dean's Message

Where has the year gone? It wasn't long ago I was agreeing to serve as your chapter dean, and really, the two-year term has gone quickly. It has been an honor and privilege to be in this position and has given me the opportunity to get to know a number of our chapter members more personally. I couldn't have done this job without the support of the executive board, and most importantly Brian Poch, our treasurer, and Scott Schilbe, our Sub-Dean. My utmost appreciation goes to them!

Coming up on Sunday, May 18, we will gather for an "organ crawl" in Rochester with the last stop at the Plummer Carillon on the Mayo Clinic campus. Our evening concludes with dinner at Victoria's and installation of 2008-2009 board members and officers. We hope you can all be a part of the fun!

I don't know about you, but I am excited about attending the National AGO Convention this summer in the Twin Cities. A number of our chapter members have registered and I know it's not too late to do so.

Finally, I'd like to thank everyone for attending our events this past year and supporting the work of our chapter. The board has been very helpful and has done a great job planning the past year.
