CARILEC's Chairman Lynn Young Welcome Remarks at the Renewable Energy Conference
Fellow Directors and Officers, Associate Members, Valued Sponsors and Representatives from the OAS, Honored guests, Ladies and Gentlemen:
It is my pleasure to welcome you to this our First Renewable Energy Conference. Four months have already passed since my good friend Frank Crothers handed over the chairmanship of CARILEC to me. But I can’t help feeling that he should be the one giving this welcome address, for this conference has been a brain child of Frank. So Frank deserves the credit for a great idea, and I am certainly glad to have him continuing on as a director and to be able to tap into his advice from time to time.
