b"Message NFHRSupportersPresident's LetterDear NFHR members,This has been a rather rough year for the NFHR Board of Directors. I would like to thank my predecessor, Sara Jongsma, and Board member Cady Miller, for their hard work and service to the Board. I would also like to welcome Holly Durst to the Board. I thank you all for allowing me to be your third President this year. My name is Kelsey Sayers. I currently own seven Fjords. While my time as President will likely be short I promise to do my very best to move the Board in a positive direction. As mentioned, this has been a rough year for the Board, but despite that we have had some wonderful accomplishments. Among these are introducing phase two of the website member portal, hosting the first evaluation in seven years, adopting a fundraising policy, and creating a membership survey. Our chair of the Breeders Committee is also working on creating a coefficient of inbreeding trend chart for our Fjords. While we continue to do our best to preserve, promote, and protect our wonderful breed, we also know we cannot do this alone. With that I would like to thank all of our donors from the bottom of my heart. Without all of you this would not be possible. Kelsey Sayers, NFHR President 08 Fjord Herald Issue #149Winter 2023"
