With full appreciation of the many new challenges Amy is undertaking, the Hidden-Tech Steering Committee has accepted Amy Zuckerman's resignation from the Board.

As the founder of Hidden-Tech, Amy has been at the root of this community. She recognized that by bringing a diverse yet isolated group of entrepreneurs together, we become an important economic entity. She gave us a name and was instrumental in finding ways for us to meet and collaborate. For that we are all very thankful. Amy has assured us she is not leaving Hidden-Tech and will continue to support our organization in various ways into the future.

Amy, thank you for the wonderful effort you've put into this organization for the last five years. We wouldn't be here without you.

We look forwarding to seeing many of you at the Holiday Party on December 12, 5-8 p.m., Calvin Theater, Bar 19, in Northampton. Jazz Sketches (www.jazzsketches.com) will give us live entertainment and we've already received a number of priceless items and services for our raffle.

Your board is excited about planning for the coming year and will be sharing details soon on collaborating to develop future Hidden-Tech programs.

Best wishes,
