Dear NCSG members,

It is my pleasure to announce that after a very long process
the NCSG and CSG have agreed to jointly appoint Chris Buckridge
to Board Seat 14.

We thank Paul McGrady, as the NCPH NCA, for all his help in
the process, and Lori Schulman and Mason Cole from the CSG,
as well as both the NCSG Executive Committee and Policy
Committee for their hard work and cooperative spirit, but I
especially want to thank Matthew Shears for his excellent work
during his two terms on the Board, and for his patience and
tolerance with this drawn-out process and all the associated
uncertainty.

	Julf
