A Message from Michael Hirman

October 30, 2026

It’s with bittersweet feelings that I write to the membership.  I have accepted new employment in Minnesota, and it will begin before my term as President of the San Diego Chapter ends.  I must therefore resign effective Noon on January 1, 2027.  I have appointed Duncan Campbell as 1st Vice President and he will serve as Acting President from my resignation until the January membership meeting on January 16, 2027, when the new Board of Directors is sworn in. 
I have enjoyed my time with the San Diego Chapter, and I am deeply honored to be elected President of the Chapter twice.  I will very much miss our meetings and events.  I wish the chapter the very best as it moves forward.  
 
-Michael Hirman, SDSAR President
