their September 23-24 Fall Board Meeting the BlueRibbon Coalition Board selected Greg Mumm
to replace current Executive Director Clark Collins when he retires at the end of this

leading the BlueRibbon Coalition to our current level of credibility and prestige,"
said Collins. "It's been a lot of fun and a big challenge. Now, I'm looking forward
to helping Greg take it to the next level."
Jack Welch, Blue Ribbon Board Chairman, affirmed "The Board reviewed
a field of outstanding candidates from across the country and selected Board member Greg
Mumm as the best person to fill the Executive Director position. BlueRibbon continues to
have a bright future, and Greg will provide the leadership to grow the Coalition's

Clark Collins is turning over a solid organization with a top-shelf staff around which I
can continue to expand the BRC sphere of influence. We have lots to do on behalf of over
600,000 good folks across this nation and I cant wait to roll up my sleeves and get
started."
