As I’ve said before, I think personal differences have been the main obstacle
in bringing everyone together to form this new organization. But at the
end of the day, the process yielded a well-rounded seven member board of
directors to guide the new organization. In fact, of the seven newly elected
board members, six served on the boards of the three participating legacy
organizations - two from each board.
Our community faces many challenges to thrive in this changing world. I
believe we have put in place a structure to help us effectively meet those
challenges.
The question now is whether we will be able to set aside our differences and
embrace the opportunities in front of us. Will we come together and move
forward in the focused, positive, optimistic manner needed for meaningful
progress? My hope is that we will.
- Eric Graue, an actively engaged community leader
