<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I have been nominated by three people for the position of general member. I am declining this year for the following reasons:</div><div><br></div><div> (1) I don't have the time each week to commit</div>
<div> (2) I have not been here very long at all</div><div> (3) I don't have a clear understanding of what I would be achieving</div><div> (4) I doubt there is much I can do on the committee that I can't do off it</div>
<div> (5) There are clearly plenty of others available to help the cause</div><div><br></div><div>I'd like to thank those who nominated me. I very much like the idea of being a part of the LA community, and I intend to do what I can in the background, as time permits. I will consider running next year, if my circumstances allow.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Best of luck to those people who have accepted the challenge of running for one of the positions.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>-Tennessee Leeuwenburg</div></div>
