NAQT Officer Changes for 2019-2020
NAQT recently conducted its officer elections for 2019-2020, and since our set of officers saw several changes, we wanted to notify the community. After 21 years, R. Robert Hentzel is stepping down as President of NAQT. During his tenure, he oversaw NAQT's dramatic growth, including the creation of five new championships. We are profoundly grateful for his leadership. R. will continue to be NAQT's Chief Technical Officer. Emily Pike is also stepping down as VP of Operations. For 12 years, Emily handled practice orders and shipped tournament sets. She made sure that literal tons of supplies made it to championships, where she led our friendly Info Desk team. We are so grateful for all her work!
