After two years of service, SLF's board member Gerhard van den Top, unfortunately, had to leave our board of directors due to his over-packed daily agenda as the Chair (Dijkgraaf) of the Water Authority for the Amstel, Gooi and Vecht. And after four years of service, SLF's treasurer Jos Teeuwisse, unfortunately, had to leave our board as well. Both will forever remain dear friends of SLF, whom we are most thankful for all their previous input and ongoing support.
