So Long, It's Been Good To Know Ye

One of the benefits of being a Commissioner of the Forest Preserves is being able to associate with the quality men and women that are employed there. I was reminded of that when our Director of Education was recently tagged as the new Executive Director of the Illinois Audobon Society. Tom Clay has done an excellent job of pulling together all of the education components at the District. In some ways it will be hard to let him go (as if he was giving me that choice), but he has put in place programs that will help us get along until we can find someone to fill his shoes.

Best Wishes Tom! We look forward to working with you in your new role.
