Chairman-Elect's Corner

Terry Hollrah, Chairman-Elect

First and foremost, I wish to thank the House of Delegates for their vote of confidence in me at the Denver meeting. I look forward to serving under Ed Dolly and along with Marty Hewitt. I can assure you that my opponent, colleague, and friend Don Clarke will be asked to serve on a HOD committee, as he is this year, when I serve as Chairman next year. The HOD holds a long, distinguished tradition of excellent leadership for AAPG member representation.

Ed has assembled an extraordinary degree of talented individuals (in a very short time) to serve on the HOD committees. To those volunteers, I applaud and commend you all for accepting the committee leadership responsibilities. This is going to be a very fast paced year since the next convention is only six months away. I urge every Delegate to stay informed on upcoming issues. I know I've already been overloaded with e-mails this past month.

I also urge everyone to learn about the AAPG programs and what the organization has to offer. Our Geocare Insurance now offers a Twice Life Program and Comprehensive Dental Insurance along with seven other insurance programs. AAPG also offers a new 401(K) retirement savings plan called GeoVest for small employers and sole proprietorships. The new AAPG sponsored Prospect Expo should be a great success for our members. These are just a few of the many programs this organization has to offer.

I look forward to a great year and an even better one next year.
