by Debbie Baker, National Vice President for Colonization & Membership for TBS
& Mike Osborn, National Vice President for Colonization & Membership for KKPsi

Dear Members of Tau Beta Sigma and Kappa Kappa Psi,

The National Councils and Board of Trustees of Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma are pleased to accept Alan Bonner's request to rescind his resignation as National Executive Director.

It is the agreement of the National Council, the Board of Trustees, and Alan Bonner that the National Executive Director is a part of the triangle of success in our organizations. Over the years, Alan has brought much to the ED position and has agreed to move with the organizations to the next level.

We are sorry that Alan's personal desire to work on the collegiate level did not work out as planned, but are happy that his wish to return to our organizations was a priority.

Thank you to all of our membership for your continued efforts in the band world! We look forward to seeing all of you at National Convention. Now is the time to have your voice heard! Attend and make a difference!

Sincerely,
Debbie Baker and Mike Osborn
National Vice Presidents of Colonization and Membership
Tau Beta Sigma Sorority and Kappa Kappa Psi Fraternity
