Happy 2009 to the Missouri ARES membership! I wish that everyone has a safe, healthy and Happy New Year. To start off the new year on a good note I have sent out a SEC letter which talks about where we have been, where we are today and goals laid out in a three year plan. All DEC’s have this document with instructions to forward this on down to the EC’s who in turn will make sure that every member in their group has the document. This letter was also sent out as a courtesy to the SEC’s from the surrounding states, leadership officials for civil air Patrol, Red Cross, Salvation Army and the MARS program. This is to show that we are open to using all resources to augment our plan and to become a resource if needed by these organizations. My main goal is to avoid duplication of effort. If you need to see a copy of the document you can go here.
