1980's - 1992
Prior to SCAN NATOA
becoming a Chapter complete with by-laws, an ad-hoc committee was formed in the
late 1980's to plan occasional meetings, raise money for local hosting
responsibilities associated with the 1991 NATOA conference held in Anaheim, and
work with the staff at NATOA on various issues. The committee was
comprised of the following Telecommunications Officers and Advisors:
Larry Bender, Warren Carter, Susan Herman, Jonathan Kramer, John Risk, Wally
Siembab
1992 - 1996
In 1992, the
committee asked four people to help form an official chapter and serve as the
initial officers. The chapter was known as SoCal NATOA. The initial Board developed the by-laws, conducted
quarterly meetings, and started a newsletter that went to all NATOA members in
California. The first board consisted of:
President - Brenda
Trainor
Vice President - Kathy Moore
Treasurer - Rod Foster
Secretary - Howard Crisp
1996 - 1997
The first Board
remained in office until 1996 when the Board was expanded, and the by-laws were
changed to include a name change from the "Southern California Chapter" of NATOA
to the "Southern California and Nevada Chapter," and the annual rotation of
officers.
