Thanks to Cheryl Purcell for doing the Newsletter editing and Catalog layout for the past few years. We appreciate all your efforts Cheryl. Best of luck teaching etc. Cheryl has resigned from the board too. Our new Newsletter editors are : Daryl Conner and Carol Visser. “WELCOME” Each are capable, and together combine wit, knowledge and a new direction for our newsletter. We hope you like our next issue.

We’d also like to wish Annie Brown the best of luck in her new venture with her new salon and doggie day care. Annie was our Exhibitor Coordinator for 2006, had some wonderful ideas, was a board member and also resigned.

Mr. Tony Coppola was voted in as our new Exhibitor Coordinator. If the name sounds familiar, his wife is Toni, our President. So, saying Mr. Tony or Mrs. Toni clears it up.

We’d also like to wish Anita Gagnon, who helped with the mobile groomers and Chris Dwyer who helped at the fall fest all the best. They had to resign for personal reasons.

That leaves some positions open for the nominating committee at our Spring Fling, May 6th, 2007. The only requirements is that you attend board meetings, are a member, are willing to work at the fall fest and make suggestions at board meetings to help move New England Pet Grooming Professionals forward. Thanks!
