[Nfbkabs] Board Position

[slerythema at insightbb.com]

I have been having computer problems, so I'm a little late in getting around to posts.





Jennifer,





I have seen the amount of work that you have poured into KABS.  Also, KABS is not a Louisville organization.  While it started with a bunch of us in Lousiville, that was due to the fact that we started with people we knew and then branched out.  





You have grown as a leader with your ability to accomplish things and your involvement with KABS.  I would personally like to see you consider running for the position of President.  I think that you possess many of the qualities of a good leader and it would help others to see that KABS is not a Louisville organization.





Cindy

-------------- next part --------------
Jennifer,
I have seen the amount of work that you have poured into KABS.? Also, KABS is not a Louisville organization.? While it started with a bunch of us in Lousiville, that was due to the fact that we started with people we knew and then branched out.?
You have grown as a leader with your ability to accomplish things and your involvement with KABS.? I would personally like to see you consider running for the position of President.? I think that you possess many of the qualities of a good leader and it would help others to see that KABS is not a Louisville organization.
Cindy
