Thirteen directors were sworn in last Wednesday at the Greater San Diego Business Association’s annual installation dinner at Lotus Thai Cuisine downtown. SD City Councilmember Toni Atkins was on hand to bestow the honors. All of the board’s officers were elected to a second term: President Bobby Vannoy; Vice President Michelle Burkart; Treasurer Julianna Lopez and Secretary Donna Cunning. The installation included new (and handsome) board member Eric Brown.
