Default Dennis Wright - I'll miss you

Hi,

I feel this needs to be said.

I am very sorry to see Dennis Wright resign from the SSA. I agree that it
makes sense. I agree that he should have caught the financial issues long
ago - that would have saved us all a lot of pain. However, I was impressed
with him.
- He was a glider pilot
- He was a volunteer at a soaring contest or 2
- He traveled to meet SSA members and soaring clubs
- He seemed to have our best interest in mind
- He seemed to be trying to streamline the SSA and make it more efficient.

I hope his replacement considers emulating some of those attributes.

I'm sure others will have strong opinions on this, but I felt it needed to
be said. I never worked with him closely, but I was impressed with his
accomplishments.

Good Soaring,

Paul Remde
