2021 ELECTION INFORMATION
PCS Elections
The Prescott Computer Society will conduct its annual meeting and election for positions on the Board of Directors
at the General meeting to be held on March 13, 2021. PCS members may vote either by acclamation at that meeting or
online prior to it depending on the number of candidates and open positions. The Board of Directors is composed of nine
officers whose terms are for two years with about half of the positions open each year.
Are YOU interested in running for a two-year seat on the Board of Directors? We are always
looking for new Board members and please be aware that you do not have to be a

conscientious, dependable and having organizational skills. You should be also be concerned
about the direction and future of PCS and be willing to contribute a small amount of your time.
You may nominate yourself or any current member (with their permission, of course.) Candidates
will be asked to supply a picture and a short statement of their history, interests and qualifications for office.

I've been involved in the Computer Industry, one way or another, for the past 55 years, including 32 years with IBM. After a half
century of immersion in computer technology it is too late to turn back now.
I am seeking reelection to the Prescott Computer Society because I enjoy the challenge of keeping up with what's new with computers
and the internet and exposing the members to what I learn in the Special Topics SIG.
I really like doing presentations for the marvelous members of the PCS. And now that I am president I am all the more dedicated to moving
the Prescott Computer Society forward in its goal of Sharing What We Know and Learning What We Don't.

I am a retired Mechanical Engineer who worked for many years in the
aerospace electronics business, and for a few in a small custom design, high
tech inspection equipment company. I ended my career designing and
directing the use of computerized electronics assembly equipment.
I have been a member of the Prescott Computer Society for a number of years,
and prior to moving to Prescott, was a member of the San Diego Computer
Society since 1975. I am interested in all aspects of computers and
computing and have built many personal computers over the years. I own my
own domain and maintain a personal web page chronicling my travels and many projects at
masonclan.org
In addition to computing, I enjoy traveling in my motor home, working in my machine shop, using
my 3D printer, taking and editing photographs, and reading both ebooks and "real" books.
I have enjoyed working for you as a member of your board of directors and if
you so desire, I will be happy to continue to do so.

I have been in the PCS for a long long time and have responsibility for 5
pcs and several android phones. I enjoy using the computer but wish some
things were more straightforward. I am sticking it out to the end and hope I
can add something to PCS. I have been on the Walker Fire board and
established their website. I started it but did not do webmaster duties.
That's a picture of me having fun in Mexico.

I've been a member of PCS since moving to Prescott in the fall of 1998. Although I was a CPA with an international
accounting firm, the last 10 years of my working career were spent managing computer networks and supporting users.
I've been a volunteer at the Prescott Public Library as a computer mentor for 20 years. I'm also
active in various other organizations in Prescott. I have been the PCS Treasurer for several years. I'm willing to
continue as a PCS Board member for another term.
