Every two years, there's a bit of a shake-up on the board of the AATF-WI. The President Elect becomes President, the President becomes Past President, and the Past President rotates off.
In our November membership meeting at WAFLT, we voted to keep our Secretary/Treasurer on board, and we were looking forward to electing our new President Elect at the same time but there were no candidates on the slate. A new President Elect candidate finally stepped up and was officially appointed to the board (as per our by-laws) in January.
Also at that November meeting, we extended our gratitude to a board members who has worked tirelessly for the AATF-WI and its members.
AATF-WI is a better place thanks to Kara Torkelson (Wausau West/East High School). She spent a total of six years on the board moving from President Elect, to President, to Past President. During that time, Kara brought unbounded enthusiasm, a talent for networking, and a vast working knowledge of our organization, of WAFLT, of our neighboring chapters, and of AATF national. Her participation and leadership were greatly appreciated.
