Welcome Members, Guests and Contributors to a New and Exciting opportunity for 2008.

I am pleased to announce our newly elected board members! Continuing on with another term as Director, Chris Baker, Roseville Fire Department; Director, Angela Azevedo, California Department of Corrections; Vice President, Randy Hagar, Alameda County. In addition, we had a late resignation of a Director, and Scott Andrews, City of Sacramento, stepped up for the appointment.

It is a career enhancement opportunity to become an active member of NAPCO and one that is not taken lightly. Each Broad member and official is committed and strives to contribute to the Chapter’s success. At the January Board kick-off meeting, the team will discuss positive updates to the way the Chapter conducts business; including the feasibility to accept credit cards, multiple training venue opportunities, additional member support services and how to better serve our members and commercial vendors during the upcoming large nationwide projects; such as rebanding, 700MHz systems and broadband.

I look forward to working with you in 2008!
