From
the President…
Year 2003 can be characterized as a year of new opportunities and
unprecedented growth for the Polish Club of Atlanta. Several new
volunteers joined the Board of Directors bringing enthusiasm, new ideas
and new activities. The cooperation with such organizations as the
Chopin Society of Atlanta, High Museum, SciTrek Museum, or Woodruff
Center has developed. In addition, many of our existing functions,
especially the School, the Newsletter and the Internet site showed great
progress. The Mission Statement has been formulated and realized in all
the Club’s functions. On the verge of 2004, the Polish Club of Atlanta
is a strong and mature organization thanks to all who participated in
its development. Their efforts, honesty, selflessness, dedication to
Polish community, willingness to help in any situation, their BIG
HEARTS, which gained them my highest admiration and respect, are the
creators of today’s Club status. My dearest friends from the Polish
Club of Atlanta Board of Directors, I feel honored and privileged to
know you and to have had a chance to work with you. Thanks to you I will
have great memories.
I am looking to the Club’s future with a great dose of
optimism. After almost seven years of active service for the Polish
community, in order to dedicate more time to my family and to my
professional life, I decided not to submit my candidacy for the new
Board of Directors. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all
of you, members and supporters, for your confidence, moral and financial
support for the organization I had the privilege to be a President of,
and the assistance and friendship I personally enjoyed. There would not
be a strong organization without a strong support from you. Please show
your support for the new Board of Directors that will be elected on
January 24th, 2004. There are many great Poles living in the
metro Atlanta area and I am confident that the Club will continue to
grow and flourish. I am sure that the Polish community and Poland will
win over new supporters among Americans and gain respect for the
professionalism, honesty and highest quality represented by our
organization. I hope to see you at the numerous Club events. |
