<div dir="ltr">Hi gang,<div><br></div><div>It's been a good run, but I'm moving on. <span style="font-size:12.8px">No drama or anything, it's just that my son is getting older and we want to use some of our 3-day weekends for other activities (hard to imagine, I know) as well as indoctrinating him as the next generation of gamer during cons. I also want to spend some more time creating and running LARPs, rather than just coordinating others'.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px">You are in good hands with Tara (and Rob) and I'm still going to be available for her to ensure a smooth transition. See you at the con!</span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px"><br>Ryan</span></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 6, 2017 at 10:49 PM, Strategicon Department Heads <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:deptheads@strategicon.net" target="_blank">deptheads@strategicon.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Message From: Eric Aldrich <a href="mailto:ealdrich@mac.com">ealdrich@mac.com</a><br>

Jim is stepping into the spot open due to Tim’s passing. Mike is stepping into the role most recently held by Mike James before John Paiva stepped down. We decided to go back to this structure and have a sixth non-voting member to offer advice and break ties if one person could not make the meetings. Mike Fryer is also part of the ownership and has a voice already in those matters as well.</div><div><br></div><div>So now Jim and Mike get to drink directly from the firehose. Thanks guys.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Ryan McMullan is stepping down</b></div><div><br></div>Ryan is officially stepping down as LARP coordinator effective after this last show. He’s planned this for a while, and will still be involved in the con, but on the writing/GMing side. Heck, right now he’s still on the list so if he wants to add anything, he can.<div><br></div><div>Ryan is actually the second longest serving of our department heads (after Tracy) — he started back at Orccon 2008 — a good solid 10-year run.</div><div><br></div><div>His replacement is Tara Leederman. She’s been heavily involved in Wyrd Con and helping Ryan the last couple of cons. I’ll let her introduce herself. She’s now on the list.</div><div><br></div><div>So thank you, Ryan. Welcome Tara.</div><div><br></div><div>Eric</div><div><br></div></div><br>______________________________<wbr>_________________<br>
