Past IAWA Officers

by Al Myers

These past few months I have been working on a project.  I have been trying to develop a historical archive of the past IAWA Officers.  This has not been an easy task – as this information has not been located in a single source, but rather, multiple sources.  After searching through many past USAWA Strength Journals, IAWA(UK) Strength Journals, past IAWA World Meeting minutes, and talking to individuals who held office, I finally think I have this list complete.  If anyone notices any errors in this list – please let me know so I can get to the “bottom of it” and make the proper corrections.  This archive will be kept on the USAWA website under the “history” section for future reference.  I especially want to thank Steve Gardner, Frank Allen, and Chris Bass for their help in getting this project done.
