Dear CLiPS Members
Welcome to 2023.
All the CLiPS events in 2022 were a great success due to the support from so many of you. Let us continue in the same spirit to make this year equally great. CLiPS “Income / Expenditure” statement will be published on our website for transparency.
On behalf of the CLiPS Samaj, I thank the trustees, Subhashbhai (Pani Puri), Pankajbhai, and Kiritbhai, for their service and support during their 2-year term that ended at the end of 2022.
I welcome Mahesh Patel, Vishnu Patel, and Atul Patel as our new trustees. They were nominated / elected to serve as trustees for a 2-year term during CLiPS BOD meeting held on 2/25/2023.
I would like to thank Kaushik Patel for serving as CLiPS Director during the last 4 years. Kaushikbhai resigned from the CLiPS Board simply due to being overcommitted.
BOD has appointed Subhashbhai Patel (Pani Puri) join the board as a CLiPS Director. I welcome him to the team.
