Roode named Govt Affairs chairperson

Jim Roode, previously club secretary, has been named Government Affairs Chairperson, representing the club with government agencies like the management of county-owned properties on the Big Thompson River.  Jim has been serving in that capacity, but he'll now be a voting member of the club board.  Like other board positions, it's for a one-year term.
