> I would like to take a moment of your time and thank everyone for giving me
> the opportunity to serve ETS as club secretary.
> 
> After studying and receiving my amateur radio license 16 months ago, what
> was to be just a form of emergency communications for me while trail riding,
> camping, traversing remote locations and other outdoor activities has grown
> into something much more than that.
> 
> Amateur radio has not only become a hobby, it has also become an outlet. An
> outlet to express technical thoughts, ideas and interests. I have learned
> more and learned it faster than probably anything else in the past. This
> learning was not with the help of any one elmer, but with the help of an
> entire club and community of elmers.
> 
> It has been said in the past that ETS is not just a club but extended
> family. Nothing can be more true. The amount of help and advice obtained
> from fellow ETS members for non amateur radio things has been quite equal to
> all the amateur radio related help and advice.
> 
> During long, late night daily drives between Bucks Co, PA and Staten Isl.,NY
> when my mom was sick many members stayed on the air to keep me company
> during those drives alone. The advice and information I received most
> recently on a new home purchase. The time members put aside to explain to me
> many of the variables of amateur radio. These are just some of the reasons
> why I can only hope that I gain the respect and admiration which I hold for
> ETS of NJ.
> 
> Now, 16 months later, I thank Jeff, N2VHV for giving me this opportunity.
> Not just for passing on the office of secretary but for becoming a friend
> and introducing me to ETS of NJ.

> With sincerest regards,
