 We would like to thank the 600 UPHS members who took the time to return their ballots in this year’s UPHS Board of Directors election. The results were officially announced at our 29th annual convention in Topeka, KS.

Cate Kratville and Rob Leachman were elected to the UPHS Board for 3-year terms.  Greg Gardner was re-elected for another three years.

At the UPHS Board of Directors Meeting held in Topeka Larry Tiffany retained the President’s position.  Greg Gardner remains as Vice-President.  Hilding Larson has agreed to hold the Treasurers post until a new treasurer takes over.  Joe Perz is the Board’s new Secretary.

The names of all current UPHS Board of Directors and the list of UPHS officers can be found here.
