THANKS, WAMA BOARD OF DIRECTORS

As this year draws to an end, WAMA thanks our 2025 Board of Directors for stepping up to lead this organization.  The time, commitment, and caring that they have given to make this a better, successful group is much appreciated.  Thank you!

As the 2025 officers step away, we welcome the new board, which will officially take their place on January 1st.
