The two following messages were sent to SHARC with a request to share the 
info with our membership. This in no way constitutes an endorsement of 
either.

To all my fellow members of the Southeastern Division,

After many years of service in the ARRL Field Organization, many of you have 
urged me to run for the Board of Directors. I'm pleased to announce my 
candidacy for Vice Director in the Southeastern Division.
Continuously licensed since age 12, I've made a lifelong commitment to 
Amateur Radio and the ARRL. I have held many of the Section level leadership 
positions such as Assistant Section Manager, Section Emergency Coordinator 
and Affiliated Club Coordinator as well as serving on the National Emergency 
Response Planning Committee. As an Assistant Director, meeting with you at 
hamfests, club meetings and Field Day sites, I have heard your concerns 
about the present and future of Amateur Radio. I have worked with you in the 
field with emergency communications, radio clubs, technical problems and 
public service events and have gained much valuable experience.

The Board level is the place to effect change in League policy and 
direction. I plan to partner with the new Director to put forth such 
positive change based on your input. Our incumbent Director, Frank Butler, 
W4RH, is retiring after 28 years of service to the ARRL board and you will 
elect a new Director as well. I have personally worked with all the 
candidates for Director and confident this working relationship will 
continue with your new Southeastern    Division team.

I am asking for your support and your vote when you receive your ballot 
from HQ in October. Do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or 
concerns.

When we work together, anything is possible.

Very 73,

Jeff  Beals  WA4AW
