Changes on the Board of Directors

Thank you to everyone who voted in our recent Board election! We had great candidates and the totals were very competitive. We want to welcome Dick Beam, Andrew Boxberger, Lori Keys and Matt Meier to the Board. Colleen Condron and Paul Veldman were re-elected to new terms.I want to thank Directors who are “retiring”. Thanks go to Dave Wuellner. Also, thanks go to Kevin Erb who has ably served as president. Lynn Giant is stepping down from the Board, too. She was instrumental in the efforts to bring roses, daylilies, water and electricity service to the Roundabout. Thanks!After 21 years, John Kowalczyk is retiring from the Board. John has served as our treasurer most of those years as well as being our resident legal counsel. John guided us through the process of amending our covenants. And unless you’ve witnessed the processes of researching property deeds at the Recorder’s office, preparing bulk mailings, and tracking the Association’s dues and accounts, you can’t truly appreciate the amount of time and effort that he has spent for Southwood Park. It’s a part-time job without pay. I’m sure he doesn’t like getting this recognition, but it would be wrong not to write anything about it.On behalf of the neighborhood (and particularly Boards present and past), thank you! - Steve McCord
