In order to pursue an opportunity in her personal life, long time board member and current IPA officer Brenda Johnson has resigned from the Board as IPA's Secretary. We are fortunate that Wendy Stokes was available and the Board has unanimously approved her nomination as Successor Secretary for the 2011-2012 year. For more information on these remarkable members, please look for the President's Message in the October 2011 edition of The Precedent newsletter.
