Thanks Charlie!
We'd like to acknowledge Charlie Nygard who is retiring as our webmaster. Charlie designed and created our website a few years back at no charge to the WBA. Since then, he has been regularly updating it and providing us with the support that we've needed, always coming up with helpful ideas along the way. Now with other business ventures taking up his time, Charlie is ready to pass on the reins as webmaster.
Most of us in this business association are most proud of the Fall Pumpkin Festival and the money it now generates for our college scholarship program. What most people don't know is that this Fall Pumpkin Festival was Charlie Nygard's vision. Charlie came up with the idea and drafted the proposal that we took to the Township for initial approval in 2005. Thank you Charlie from everyone on the Board and our entire Association!
