Thank You To Our Retiring Board Members, Outgoing President

Last month, we mentioned in this blog that the new fiscal year brought about some changes to the Imagine! Foundation Board of Directors.

Today, we’d like to say thanks once again to two board members who retired from the board after each completing six exemplary years of service.
Dennis Paul


Dennis Paul was a great asset to the board, serving on various committees, generously supporting the Imagine! Celebration Dinner and Auction through personal table purchases, Elevations Credit Union table purchases, getting auction items, and providing for the very popular live auction “Rowdy Round-Up” cattle drive and Steamboat Springs auction item. Dennis also brought in sponsorships from Exempla Good Samaritan Medical Center and tables from EKS&H and Roche Colorado Corporation. Many thanks, Dennis, for all you have done, and continue to do, for Imagine!.
 

Eric Wallace
Eric Wallace was another great asset to the board, and his liquid assets were especially popular! Eric’s Left Hand Brewing Company has provided beer for every Imagine! Celebration and every Foundation event since he’s been on the board. He has also been responsible in securing several Longmont auction items every year, hosting a mini-fundraiser at Left Hand Brewing last fall, and, most significantly, employing Imagine! clients as part of his packaging operation at Left Hand Brewing. Thanks Eric, for the profound impact you have had on Imagine! and the individuals we serve.

Leona Stoecker

Finally, we’d also like to thank Leona Stoecker for serving as Imagine! Foundation President for the past two years. Leona wasn’t just a figurehead, she lived and breathed the position! Leona has spoken to numerous service clubs and groups about Imagine! and has taken people on tours of the Charles Family SmartHome. She keeps the trunk of her car loaded with SmartHome packets, tri-fold informational business cards, Celebration invitations, etc. so that she is always ready to share information about Imagine!. Leona has offered her “Year of Home Baked Bread” for the Celebration’s live auction the last two years. Leona has done a myriad of things to put Imagine! on people’s minds in Longmont and has been an outstanding leader for the Foundation. She exemplifies to the highest degree what we mean by “passion” for Imagine!, and we cannot thank her enough.
