Long - standing BVA President Moves On

July 10, 2019

I regret to inform the Members that Bryan Ayres, our President since 2013 and Vice-President this year, has stepped down from his position. Bryan's life is fast-paced and busy, and he felt now was the right time. He remains in contact with me and I won't miss his counsel, as I still have it!
