| A message from ECCOTA President, | |
| Liz Hammer | |
| As you may or may not be aware Elk County is losing a fine asset to our community. After 5 years in Ridgway, four of which she worked with ECCOTA, first serving as a member of the Board and general staff and then spending the past two years as Executive Director, Andi Willis is leaving our organization. And although she will no longer live in Elk County her contributions will live in the heart and soul of ECCOTA for years to come. Andi, we thank you for your hard work, perseverance and dedication |
| and wish you and your family the best of luck
in your new endeavors in Perry, GA. As Andi moves on, Abbi Peters has accepted the position of Executive Director. Abbi and her husband, artist Charles Wish, moved to Ridgway in May 2007 after purchasing the old school house on Walnut Street. Peters studied Art Education and Fine Arts at Kutztown University and then moved to Los Angeles, CA. She spent the past seven years broadening her administrative experience in the fields of fashion and music accessories, while expanding her creative spirit in the mediums of comedy, jewelry and photography. Over the years the Arts Council has been blessed with some extraordinarily talented women. And I believe we are again blessed. Welcome aboard Abbi! |
