ARLB014 Dan Grady, N2SRK, Appointed as New Rocky Mountain Division
Vice Director

ARRL President Rick Roderick, K5UR, has appointed Dan Grady, N2SRK,
of Aurora, Colorado, as the new Rocky Mountain Division Vice
Director. Grady will succeed Robert Wareham, N0ESQ, who has stepped
down from that post to accept appointment as Colorado Section
Manager (SM), taking the reins from SM Jack Ciaccia, WM0G, who
resigned effective on June 1 to relocate.

'I am delighted to welcome Dan to the ARRL Rocky Mountain Division
team,' Rocky Mountain Division Director Jeff Ryan, K0RM, said.  'His
strong leadership skills and his boundless enthusiasm for amateur
radio will be a great benefit to the members of ARRL, as well as the
amateur radio community at large.'

Grady credited Ryan and the Division's Section Managers for keeping
the Division healthy and strong. 'I am humbled and honored to be
working with Division Director Jeff Ryan as well as the Section
Managers throughout Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, and Utah,' he
said. 'I am equally excited to be working for and serving ARRL
members in this leadership role. To join the ranks of the
exceptional people is an honor, and I can assure our membership that
the Rocky Mountain Division will continue to set many amazing
standards for the amateur radio community in the years to come.'

A native of southern New Jersey, Grady was licensed in 1992 after a
middle-school technology teacher inspired his curiosity about ham
radio. He served in the Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) and
Office of Emergency Management communication support teams in
southern New Jersey and in the Philadelphia areas in the 1990s.
After relocating to Colorado in 2014, he helped to found and now
serves as president of the Parker Radio Association - a 150-member
ARRL-affiliated club.

Grady enjoys chasing DX on HF and contesting, as well as digital
modes. He is a vice president and executive team member for a sheet
metal manufacturing, fabrication, and wholesale company
headquartered in Denver and is a state chapter board member for a
national sheet metal contractor association.

Grady holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Phoenix and
pursued religious studies at Seton Hall University.
