| 1984-85 Executive Committee Election Statement of BARBARA REBER |
As a long time member of the Angeles Chapter and Orange County resident, I feel I could adequately represent the members of the Angeles Chapter on the Executive Committee. I have served the Desert Peaks Section as Secretary/Treasurer, Council Representative, Conservation Representative, Sage Editor and Chairperson. I have served the Sierra Peaks Section as Program Chair and Conservation Representative. I have served the Sierra Club Council as Secretary. I am an I rated leader for the Desert Peaks Section, Hundred Peaks Section and Sierra Peaks Section. I have eleven years experience working within the political structure of the Angeles Chapter, therefore I feel I understand the problems and priorities of our Chapter. I also feel the Activities Sections, Groups and Committees need equal and adequate representation on the Ex Comm. I urge you all to vote for me in the 1983 election. |
FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND Ron Jones Five Years Ago in the DPS |
| As usual there was not much activity in the DPS during this late summer-fall period. The Desert Sage for Aug-Oct 1978 listed Jim Erb as becoming the 29th DPS list finisher and Bill T Russell number 30 on Nelson Mtn 9/24. Bill T had earned his SPS Senior Emb1em on Muah the day before. New emblem holders included Jim Cervenka and Ted Pinson on Montgomery, George Smith on Inyo, Anna Lou Pinson and Pat Lavengood on Charleston and Dale Van Dalsem on Montgomery--all from the '77-'78 climbing season. Gordon MacLeod and Andy Smatko scheduled Desert Hound/Jubilee/Schwaub and Echo on a late October exploratory. |
