We bid adieu to Cindy Wolff. Cindy, we are indebted to you for three successful years of dedication to NYTSL, first as Vice President/President-Elect, then as President, and then as Past President. You saw us through rough economic times and some big changes during the last three years, including our moves to a new website and a new program venue. We extend our gratitude and wish you good luck in all future endeavors!
