Category 3 (Room Operator)
• Danny Kuykendall (Danny K’s Billiards), three-year term
In follow-up elections, Ivan Lee (Iwan Simonis, Inc.) accepted a one-year term as BCA Board chairman, as did each of the remaining seated officers: First Vice Chairman Renee Lyle (American Poolplayers Association); Second Vice Chairman Kathy Vegh (Danny Vegh’s Billiards & Home); Secretary Eric Weber (CueStix International); and Treasurer Karim Belhaj (Predator Group).
The remaining directors include: Nick Alexander (Clicks Billiards); George Darafeev
(Mikhail Darafeev, Inc.); Barry Hart (Viking Cue Mfg., Inc.); John Petti (Atlas Billiard
Supplies); and Tony Stick (The Billiard Factory).
“The past year has been turbulent for the economy, as well as for our industry, and leading the Board though this period has been demanding,” Lee said. “However, I will accept the challenge to lead the Board once again and I will work diligently to ensure that the BCA’s key initiatives of enhancing the value of both membership and the BCA Expo will remain in focus." |
