On February 2, 2011, Director Neil Capener retired from the Western AgCredit Board of Directors. At the time of his retirement, Neil was the longest continuous serving Director on the Board, having served the Association for 19 years. Director Capener’s insights, leadership and willingness to serve will be missed, but we wish him the best in his future endeavors as he retires to spend more time with his family, managing his dairy operation and fulfilling responsibilities with his church. We would like to thank Neil for his dedicated service to the Association. Director Capener's wife, LuAnn, who always kept meetings and trips exciting with her positive outlook and sense of humor will also be missed.

The Board of Directors will appoint an interim Director to replace Mr. Capener as the Director representing Region 1. The interim Director will serve until the Region 1 seat is up for re-election, which is in 2012. As soon as an interim Director is appointed, customers and staff will be notified of the replacement.
