• NAD Conference [2]

Today was the final Council of Representatives meeting and the concluding election for the next group of officers to take up the leadership of the NAD! The delegates, representatives, affiliates and general public bystanders quickly filled the Hyatt Regency Ballroom, and a suspenseful feel filled the room but was quickly broken when former NAD President Bobbie Beth Scoggins took the stage and began the meeting. She was gleaming with pride when she announced several award winners as they took the stage.

Scoggins then asked the WFD President, Colin Allen, and the WFD Board Member and Representative from Turkey, Hasan Dikyuva, to take the stage and confirm the next WFD convention, which will be held in Istanbul, Turkey in 2015 with Scoggins as the signature witness. After all the fun and play, it was time to get down to business. The candidates for the Secretary position (Sean Gerlis and Kirsten Poston) and President position (Sheri Farinha and Christopher Wagner) took the stage and presented their platforms for the delegates and the media to see. After they presented their platforms, the delegates then took a 10 minute recess to speak among each others and come to a concluding vote. After the votes were tallied up and several awards were given out, the winning candidates were announced by former NAD President, Gertie Galloway, starting with Region IV.

Region IV Representative: David Reynolds

Region III: Larry Evans

Region II: Michael Berger

Region I: Steve Lovi

Treasurer: Phillipe Montalette

Secretary: Kirsten Poston

Vice President: Melissa Draganac-Hawk

The NAD will be accepting applications in the near future for the appointed Board Member positions- keep your eyes peeled for more information!
