Fellow Toastmasters, 

Just for the record and following suggestions of Club President and Club Officers, we proceeded to discuss and vote to: 1. name Bob Warren as interim President to complete the term of Warren Hinrichs (due to his new job responsibilities), 2. name Printella Bankhead as interim Treasurer to complete the term of Flor Lepervanche (due to her trip), 3. both Bob and Printella will be confirmed on these roles with the rest of new officers in June for the period 2014-2015 starting on July. 

Thanks, 

Jose
