Board of Directors
From the President
By Jonathan Edin | CAI-MN President
I am drawing to the end of my tenure as Board President, and also the end of 6 years on the Board of Directors. In that time, CAI-MN has gone from a struggling organization to one with vitality and purpose. CAI-MN has created the Vision Awards, Golf Tournament, Trade Show, CAVL seminars, and social events like the happy hours. Our educational efforts are second to none. All of this has been accomplished, I emphasize, through the efforts of volunteers. I wish we could borrow Oprah for a day, to hand out new cars to the myriad fine volunteers we have working for us. Our Vision Awards in June is our marquee recognition event and is a great means to draw some much needed attention to All-Stars in our industry. However, many of you out there who volunteer with us won’t qualify for those
categories or be otherwise recognized. Thus, let me thank each of you for your work, and encourage you to keep it up, adhering to the fine standards that CAI-MN is known for. Also, since I have the forum one more time, I would like to mention a few persons whom I have worked with most closely: I’d like to remember Marj Peterson, and to give special thanks to Alice Finley, Linda Wilkins, Pat Butler, Mark Schoenfelder, Joe Crawford, Mark Gittleman, Traci Lehman, Gene Sullivan, Halo Stafford, Sara Lassila, Holly Johnson, Michael Klemm, Tim Broms, Tom Engblom and Paul Hanscom. The list could be much longer, but this will have to do for now. Onward and Upward.
