SARCA Mid-Winter Meeting

The next SARCA meeting will be held on 28-29 January 2012 at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, DC, in conjunction with ROA National Security Symposium. We are working up what we believe will be an exciting agenda. Among the invited guests are Army Reserve Commander LTG Jack Stultz; and the commanders of First US Army and the US Army Cyber Command/Second US Army. There will also be a multi-hour presentation by the national Defense University.

SARCA Presidential Election

While we held an election in October, the winning candidate is unable to assume the position. We now find that we will have to elect a new President in January. Any member interested in running for that office or who would like to nominate a candidate should contact the Chairman of the Nominations Committee, BG Juan Ruiz at juan.ruiz@usar.army.mil or 714-749-9259.

New SARCA Executive Director

Acting President BG John Hanley has announced the appointment of COL Joe Moravec as SARCA’s Executive Director, effective 1 January 2012. He replaces COL Bob Fritz who submitted his resignation in October after having served for the past six years. COL Moravec is looking forward to meeting those of you whom he does not know already at the January meeting.

SARCA Dues for 2011-2012

SARCA dues notices for the membership year staring 1 October 2011 were delayed while the EXCOM considered a change to our dues schedule. Those of you who were present at the October meeting will recall that at the very end of the meeting there was a brief discussion about a change in the dues structure. That was premature; and the dues will remain unchanged for at least one more year while a review of our financial requirements is undertaken. If you don't want to wait for your official statement, you can renew online here.
