Thursday, October 3,1963 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Pag© Pisiakee Highlands PRESIDENT OF ASSOCIATION RESIGNS POST Kay Sleltoeb HYatt 9-8414 At the regular annual board of directors meeting, president Thomas Warczak offically resigned. The new slate of officers for the next term of office will be: President, Milton Crosdale; vice-president, Bill Lange; treasurer, DeWitt Rapp; financial secretary, Betty Warczak; Secretary, Lee Conway; sergeant- at-arms, Henry Bolens; and road commissioner, Thomas Warczak. The new slate of officers took over their first meeting, Oct. 2. The board was sad to have Tom resign and they thanked him for all he had done for the association and our community. We are §ure Tom will enjoy being just Tom again, he has worked very hard and poured many hours of work in to his office and he deserves a big hand and we wish him every luck in what ever he does. If every one will support the new slate of officers as they did the past ones, much could be accomplished. Every year sees many new improvements in our community and it is forging ahead very progressively. celebrated very quietly with members of the family. We all join in wishing Hank and Marge many more years together. I hope you were flooded with cards and good wishes oa your special day the best to you both.
