OAK E-Connection April 2025
I believe it’s important to begin with the most significant change in our Local. Our former President, Bill Bernal, has resigned, and our First Vice President, Kristina Peterson, has taken on the role of President. Sam Wilkins has stepped into the position of First Vice President. Additionally, our former Treasurer, John Parrott, has resigned, and Nancy Kallas has accepted the role. It is fitting that these changes took place during Women’s History Month. All three women have eagerly and enthusiastically embraced their new positions.
