2012 AIFVF & NAMMA RESULTS

AMPS - Looking Ahead

It is no great secret that AMPS is having a hard time. Getting people to volunteer to be directors or even judges has been a problem for the past 4 or 5 years. Submissions to the newsletter were few and far between. So your board is looking at various ways of maintaining our beloved organization.

We have been short of one director since Jim Beach passed away, so we are appointing Ned Cordery as a director.
Ned has been invaluable to me in carrying out my presidential duties. He has good ideas, ran the newsletter for a couple of years and cares deeply about AMPS.

At this point nothing is settled, but we want to give you all a heads-up that change will have to happen in the near future.”
