Tom Scholle, of Eldon, Missouri has volunteered to take over the duties of the post of Regional Director for Region 6, but he has to be elected first. All SGS members who live in Region 6 (that is, everyone whose postal code begins with that digit) are eligible and urged to vote.

Since the post of Elections Officer is currently vacant, the Editor, as a representative of the allied but-disinterested country of Canada, has been deputized by President Schlosser to receive and count ballots for this election. Fill in the ballot found on page 3. You may vote YES, NO, or write in the name of an alternate candidate. Clip the ballot and send it to the Editor, postmarked no later than March 31, 2000.

Results will be announced in the May 2000 issue.
