MERA Appoints Two Additional Board Members
Thursday, June 27, 2002 by Rob Granger

The Mobile Electronics Retailers Association has announced the election of two representatives of the manufacturing/importer community to its Board of Trustees. Andy Oxenhorn, president of JL Audio and Ray Windsor, vice president of Sales and Marketing of Eclipse by Fujitsu Ten. They were appointed by MERA's Board of Trustees to serve two-year terms. A recent change in the Bylaws of MERA provided for the addition of representatives from the manufacturer/importer members to serve as voting members of the Board of Trustees.

From it inception MERA has enlisted the guidance and wisdom of our manufacturing/importer community through the Manufacturers Advisory Council (MAC). This guidance has been very beneficial to the growth and success of the association. This positive change in the bylaws represents the forward thinking of MERA to involve more of their members in the planning and administration of the association.

MERA is currently involved in establishing various committees to take part in the development, implementation and execution of future programs and benefits. The appointment of these two board positions will help MERA take advantage of the vast knowledge that our manufacturing/importer members possess. Combined, all of this will take MERA to the next level of excellence.

"The brain trust that our manufacturer members represent is incomprehensible," states Vicky Scrivner, MERA's president. "We must do everything that we can to take advantage of this experience and knowledge."

These newly established positions on MERA's Board of Trustees carry two-year terms. Any current manufacturer/importer member of MERA can apply to MERA's nominating committee if they are interested in serving on the Board of Trustees.

MERA would like to welcome Andy and Ray to the Board of Trustees and look forward to their input over the next two years.
