Another year has come and gone. It seems like only yesterday that I first occupied the president's chair and now I am leaving. It is due to the great staff and board that the time has gone by so quickly and smoothly for me. Thank you to everyone for the help and support you have given me over the past year. A special thank you to Claire, who is always pleasant and very helpful whenever anything is asked of her at the head office.
This has been a busy year for everyone; with several directors being very active in the soil carbon sequestration issue. John, Clint and Perry: stay focused and be persistent. Several of the staff have been asked to travel to various parts of North America and share their expertise in direct seeding. We feel confident that we are going in the right direction when we are looked at as leaders in these areas. Keep up the good work!
It has been a pleasure to serve you as president this year and I wish the new SSCA president, Greg Kane all the best as he leads the SSCA through another year. May your stubble fields fill with snow and the seasons stay in alignment this year. Thank you and Goodbye.
