(Del gets elected to WOW Board of Directors)
At this inaugural conference of the Western Outdoor Writers (WOW), I was elected to the Board of Directors. I am proud to be part of this great group of folks. As far as I know, I'm one of the first power-sports, motorized recreation specialist to be elevated to a Board of Directors for an outdoor writing group.
WOW is a fast-growing organization of dedicated outdoor writers, promoting and representing outdoor communication and education. I will representing the powersports and off highway vehicle recreational perspective on the Board. Here are a few images of our first annual conference.
