Jud Perkins and his team are gathering much information and survey data so that our national club continues for the next 100 years!

The committee members are Bev Sealand, treasurer, Janis Maurer, secretary, Bill Borja, corporate council, Mike Schneider, membership chair, and Jud Perkins, chair of the Retention Committee. Marque

HEALEY MARQUE is, as usual, offered as a paper copy for $70/year. The delegates meeting was again held in Indianapolis, November 15-18. The folowing members were awarded one-year honorary memberships for their work on the 2025 Conclave: Jim Clemens, Jim Swernoff, Bernie Evans, John Seaman, Mike Swanger and Ken Sierszen.
