Changes in Board of Directors

Swamp Angel · 10-18-17, 08:58 PM

It's with heavy heart (as always) that we bid adieu to two members of our board of directors in this next cycle.

Pat Brechbill (2fly) has long been a distinguished member of NGTO and recently joined the Board of Directors. Work, however, has raised its ugly head and required his full attention, and he has stepped down from our Board of Directors in order to turn full attention to his employment. (If you enjoy having power delivered to your home, don't fault him. His professional expertise is what keeps our nation running.)

With Pat's departure, the current Board of Directors has voted to add Bill Vaughn (fishnpreacher) to fill Pat's vacated seat. Bill has long been a member of the NGTO Hall of Fame, and has a propensity to walk away from Fling after Fling with an Iron Skillet Award for his famous version of "Roosevelt Beans."

Bill resides "Just this Side of Heaven" in Dewey Rose (near Elberton) and is a welcomed addition to our Board of Directors.

A second member, and leader of our Board of Directors, has taken this opportunity to step back from his leadership position on the Board of Directors. RScott (Scott Brown) has served several years as our beloved leader but has taken this year as an opportunity to step away from the limelight and turn the reins over to another.

As Scott departs our Board of Directors, another president will be elected by the BOD. Scott's seat on the board, however, will be filled by long time NGTO member and contributor, Terry Creech.

Terry has given many years to educating the youth of Paulding County (Terry - correct me if I got the county wrong, but it's Kyle McGrady's fault if I'm off base here) and was the leader of the Drag Free Drift Clinic when I attended my first NGTO Fling several years ago.

Along with the addition of the new members to our BOD, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to both RScott and 2fly for their service to NGTO as directors.

These changes will become effective as of 1 November 2017.

Other changes have occurred in the make up of the BOD and will be announced as our Fall Fling approaches.

Please welcome, and congratulate both fishnpreacher and Terry Creech upon their appointment to the NGTO Board of Directors. Their wisdom, experience, and guidance will help to ensure the continued success of North Georgia Trout Online.

Thanks for such a nice write up Swampy! I was honored to be a part of the board, even if it wasn't as long as I had wished it would be. I've met so many great people thanks to this site and I will see you all on the reever. (assuming I get time to fish again)

fishnpreacher · 10-19-17, 07:49 PM

My thanks as well to 2fly and RScott for their service over the past few years. And I appreciate everyone's well wishes. Hope to be all that I can for NGTO for the next years.

"PREACH AND CREECH"....I like it! almost sounds like a campaign team.

Thanks to those departing and prayers for those embarking....

This NGTO member is known for his poor hill-billy upbringing and his affinity for all things from Louisiana (particularly if it relates to LSU). It makes for a poor mix of accents and much difficulty in translation. He was doing well for so long, but now seems to have regressed.
