The Horizon Foundation transitions

 Today the Horizon Foundation announced the new President and CEO, Nicolette Highsmith Vernick. As a major institution in Howard County any change in leadership at Horizon is big news.  The impact of the Horizon Foundation is widely felt in the County and it has provided leadership in addressing the well being of residents of Howard County.  I am sure that the new President will find Howard County to be a welcoming resource rich community with a wide diversity of residents.
However the transition is also a melancholy one with Rich Krieg moving on to new adventures in the next phase of his life.  While the day to day responsibilities of the Foundation will no longer be his I am sure that Rich will find new ways to contribute his talents in our community and the broader world. A conversation with Rich was always stimulating in an exchange of creative ideas.  Good luck in your new ventures--you will be missed.   

P.S  
Recreation and Parks is taking a survey of how County residents use their parks. Take their customer satisfaction survey.


P.S. 2
Couldn't help but noticed the depressed mood of many folks yesterday with the results of the Ravens game.  Sometimes it is easier to get blown out than to lose a close one.  But hey it is only two and a half months to baseball season.  Oh wait---we live in Oriole country.
