Our 2012 election is now complete. We will be retaining most of the Board of Directors that we had the last two years. One man who's been the long-standing member of the board, Brian Reilly (Spotsylvania. VA) the current VP will be leaving us due to term limits set on that position in our by-laws. Brian has done a wonderful job for us during his time on the board and will be missed. Brian's position of vice president will be filled by our current treasurer, Lee Wood (Rochester, NY). Lee will be with replaced as treasurer by the new newly elected Bob Ferguson (Annapolis, MD). The adjustments needed in our by-laws were also passed. We want to thank all of you who took the time to cast your vote. |

Hats off to Brian for his many years of service to Eastern Division. |

Our WB&A Chapter also had a successful train meet on 8 December. WB&A has had this meet annually at the Kena Temple in Fairfax , VA. I was able to attend this meet and it appeared to me to be a good “play trains” event. |

At this year's TCA convention/board meeting the Board of Directors voted to make available some of the caboose bears sold through the Museum store and to be given to children in hospitals. On August 14, Director at Large Dave Goodhart accompanied by Jane Boyce from TCA National presented three dozen caboose bears and a Little Lionel Lines train set to the children's ward at the Geisinger Hospital in central Pennsylvania. A picture of Dave making the presentation appears on page 5 of the November 2012 issue of the TCA National Headquarters News. On 6 November, I and TCA President Carol MaGinnis made a similar presentation to the children's ward at the Walter Reed Military Regional Medical Center. Carol and I were accompanied by her husband Chuck who acted as our photographer. At Walter Reed we were permitted to make presentations directly to children in the wards. Carolyn, Chuck and I spent some time in the ward playroom assembling Little Lionel Lines train set with some of the children helping us. It was a wonderful opportunity to spend some time with these military families and their unfortunately very ill children. |
