Just heard that Susie, our club Membership Chair, has decided it is time to pass the torch and turn the job over to a new member. Please join me in thanking her for all her time and hard work that she has donated to the Inliners Club.

During her time in office, she has helped fulfill the purpose of our club which is to "the preservation and enjoyment of all makes of modified 4-, 6-, or 8-cylinder inline engines, as well as the encouragement and publication of studies and research pertaining to their history, modification, restoration and maintenance." (Article One, Section II of the club Constitution)

Part of the administrative duties listed in the Inliners Club By-Laws for the Membership Chair are:

* Collect and process member dues.
* Enroll new members
* Resolve routine issues and questions regarding membership and renewal.

That last duty is a unique one among the Club Board Members because it makes the Membership Chair the only one who individually interacts with every single club member or potential club member. In some ways that makes the Membership Chair a face of the Inliners Club and Susie has performed that role admirably.

Even though she is leaving, she has graciously committed herself to helping find and train her replacement.

Thanks again to Susie and in fact to all the other hard working and dedicated board members who have kept the club "INLINE" for over 40 years!
