Hello MEEOA,
As many of you know, September 1 marks the end of MEEOA's 18-19 association year, and the start of our new Executive Committee year. I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself to those of you who don't know me, but first, I want to thank a few people who are stepping off the board after years of work. Dori Fellman just completed her second go around as MEEOA President, notably as our first GEAR UP MEEOA president. Michelle Richards, who actually has been the only MEEOA Alumni Chair, is stepping down from the board, but promises to be back soon. Please join me in thanking them for their years of service!
Now, on to our new board... My name is Steve Visco, and I am the Assistant Director of the MEOC and METS programs at the University of Maine. I will be serving as the President this year. I am very excited about the board we have pulled together this year!
