It is time to say farewell!
This will be my last Chieftain's Letter. It has been a wonderful year and I have enjoyed it so much. It has been my honor to have been able to serve as Chieftain this last year. It is my hope that I have been able to do justice to the position. Although it seems relatively insignificant in some people's eyes, I am proud to say that I wore a kilt to every meeting this past year. I know that everyone does not feel this way, but I think that it adds just a little bit something extra to the meeting if at least one person wears his kilt. So Robert, I extend this challenge to you, wear your kilt every meeting.
No one person is an island. If this year has been a successful one, it is due to the efforts of all those that helped me, more than my efforts alone. I must thank my officers, ya'll make me proud. I must thank my program chairman, what a year of wonderful programs. My newsletter editor did a great job as usual. Past Chieftain's Committee and Burns Supper Planning Committee, what an outstanding job ya'll did. All of you that had any part in making this year successful thank you from the bottom of my heart. A special thanks to my wife for putting up with me this past year.
I want to thank the dancers and pipe band of St. Thomas Episcopal School for a wonderful performance at our February meeting. We are so blessed to have you in our lives, and to be a small part of yours.
The March meeting will be on Monday night, March 24, 2008 at St. Thomas Episcopal School at 7:30 pm. The program that night will be the installation of the 2008-2009 officers. I ask that as many of you as possible attend this meeting so that we can make Robert Boyd's installation as Chieftain a truly memorable one. Jack Hume will conduct the installation.
That's all for now!
See you at the March Meeting.
Your Chieftain,
Ken Sorrels
