Rhoda Poenisch, chair of the Nominating Committee, has announced the slate that the committee will nominate to be state officers at the Annual Meeting to be held in October.
The proposed slate consists of the following:
- VP Administration Dell Hood
- VP Advocacy Ricky Linex
- VP Chapter Liaison Dennis Perz
- VP Communications Stephen Brueggerhoff
- VP Education Dawn Hancock
- VP Environmental Liaison Kevin Janni
- VP Finance Cecil Carter
Under the new Bylaws adopted last year state officers will serve for a term of two years. However Hood and Hancock have announced that they will serve for only one year each in order to smooth the transition of the board from one-year terms to two-year terms. They have each served two years on the board already.
Bill Hopkins was chosen as President-Elect by the State Board at the July board meeting in Brenham on July 20.
Also at the July board meeting, Stephen Brueggerhoff was appointed to be editor of our member magazine and Robert Kamper was appointed to the position of state webmaster. Other appointments included Cindy Stone as chair of the Texas Native Plant Week Committee and Carol Feldman as chair of the Native Landscape Certificate Program Committee.
