For the last several months our state project has been operating without an official
Assistant State Coordinator, often referred to as an ASC. Our previous ASC, Mitch Ryder,
found that he had more projects than available time and resigned, but he has been standing
by in case an emergency required someone to step in as acting SC. The time has come for
an official replacement.
I've decided to appoint two ASCs to work with me as a leadership and support team for
the project. The first of these is being announced today - that is Matthew Friend, the
County Coordinator for Blaine County. I really appreciate Matt's acceptance and look
forward to working with him. I'm just waiting for the official acceptance by a second
individual to announce the second.
More details will be coming on their duties. In the meantime, you can feel free to
contact the SC or any ASC for assistance with any issues you think we can help with.
