Election of officers and directors took place with the following results: Dave Lanzel, president; Doug Dibert, vice president; Karyl Ginter, secretary; and Diane Panzarino, treasurer, who will serve two year terms.

Re-elected as directors to the board included Dawn Dibert and Alan Schaffranek, who will join directors Duane Bordell and Kassy Olewiler to make up the board members for 2026.
