2012 Board Introduced

December 6, 2011.   DAF's first Christmas party at the San Pedro Elks Club seemed to be great success.  Dressed up in their holiday finest, the approximately 60 attendees imbibed, dined and danced the night away.  Tired of trying to convince their male counterparts to dance, the ladies took over the dance floor, formed a circle and proceeded to recreate their own version of Dance Fever.  For those of you who did not attend the party, the view from the festive Elks Lodge ballroom was spectacular.  Thanks to all of the people who helped put this great event together.

The 2012 DAF Board of Directors was announced at the party.  Mitch Taylor, Admiral-for-Life but President-for-Two-Years, stepped down as President (and was promptly recycled as Programs Chairman).  Joe Cogan was named by the Board as the new President.  A big thanks to Mitch for his two years of leadership and congratulations to Joe on his new position - the Board sincerely hopes that you will successfully make it through the double-secret probationary period.

Three long-time board members, Diana Piper, Lisa Hahn and Wyn Oetken, ended their participation on the board at the end of 2011.   The club is very grateful three for all of the time and energy these three people devoted to club activities over the course of many years.  Dave Weir also stepped down as Program chair - thanks Dave for a great year of programs.

Two new couples joined the Board: Jody and Craig Narr (Treasurer/Secretary) and Kelly and Ray Wolfbrandt (Door).  The Board welcomes these new members and unanimously agreed that, unlike Joe, no probationary period was necessary.  The full Board of Directors list for 2012 is as follows:
