THANK YOU

In November of 2013 I cycled onto the Drupal Association Board. I was excited to be taking part in an organization that had supported the way I had chosen to make my living over the last few years. I knew many of the other board members quite well. The term was for one year - which seemed very short to me. I had worked with other Non-profits, on and with other Non-profit boards, and knew that one year was barely enough time to get up to speed. Still, there was opportunities for me to help steer the organization. Early on, I was involved in reworking the Association's Vision, Mission, and Values. Later, I helped update the bylaws to increase elected board member's terms to two years and at the same time, shifted the dates which elections were occurring. That is the reason my one year term has become closer to two and half. I also worked with the board to establish term limits on appointment members. There are lots of other things that I've been involved with over the last two and half years, but these shine out to me.

This year my term was due for expiration. I had hoped to extend my work with the Association by another two years. Let me share some numbers with you.
