The news of Michael's resignation is an unfortunate turn of events for the NCNCA, and the circumstances causing his untimely departure must be overwhelming and life changing.
It is what it is and the NCNCA must move forward, so for that reason I submitted my Candidate's Statement to run for the Vice President position.
While it's only been since October, I have been actively participating at the NCNCA meetings and have had a chance to see the board at work. I am very confident in the new 2010 board members and welcome an opportunity to serve the greater good with them.
To my credit I would like to say that I have worked with Lorri assisting her with clinics and I feel very good about our ability to work together to move the NCNCA forward. We have spoken in person and electronically about many of the issues and we are in alignment with our ideas.
I hope the member clubs will agree and place your confidence in me with your vote.
Ron Castia (former candidate for President)
