Statement by Angelo Santiago
“1) Describe your history with ACNA/ACLS.
My history with ACNA /ACLS started in 2016 when my wife and I became members. A short time later, I started organizing the social events in the RGV area. It has not been an easy task, volunteer work never is, but the club presence in this area is now a reality. We’ve also acquired the support of various local vendors such as restaurants and high-end auto detailing shops.
2) Why are you interested in joining the Audi Club Lone Star Board of Directors (BoD)?.
I’m interested in experiencing how the organization operates at this level and also provide the BoD with a fresh new perspective.
3) What three items would you like to help address if elected onto the ACLS BoD?
A. To improve the current method of promotion, marketing and recruitment of new members.
B. To further develop and strengthen our relationship with the dealerships, and
C. To increase member benefits within the great state of Texas.
4) Why should members vote for you to represent them on the BoD?
I’m very grateful for the opportunity to be part of this process. I believe all individuals involved in running this organization need constant help from its members in order to be successful. If given the opportunity, I will do my best to enhance the club’s experience by working on the above mentioned goals and keep our members interests our top priority.”
