Presidential Election

Ken Ellis sends his Campaign Speech: I'll throw my hat (head) in the ring for SGS president. The best way we can heal old wounds is to forget about them. Jeez guys, gaming should be fun. You just got to be an easy going, keep on rolling with the flow, kind of guy, like me! If elected, I guess my title should be the SGS Dirty Job Guy. Anyway, somebody's got to do it. The president actually has very few real duties. I see his main task as keeping the membership informed of events currently affecting the hobby. I'll probably write a president's message and do a few reviews occasionally. Ken.

Endorsement for Ken Ellis by George Phillies: Ken Ellis has done an incredible amount of hard work for the SGS, serving for a prolonged period as Editor. He has worked hard to distribute our fliers, and to advertise our existence to gamers across the land.. Give Ken Ellis the reward he deserves: Vote Ellis for President of the SGS!
