CHIEF LEONARD E. SENECAL: [Sturbridge, MA] Thank<br />
you very much. Chiefs, wives, honored guests, I’d like to take<br />
this opportunity to say thank you for four enjoyable years <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Conference</strong>s. This has been a memorable experience for me and<br />
my wife. We’ve had a great time meeti.ng new people and learning<br />
new things. It has been our pleasure to share our quaint<br />
town with you. And I hope that you leave holding fond<br />
memories.<br />
I wish you a pleasant evening and may all <strong>of</strong> you have a safe<br />
year through these trying times. May we all meet again next<br />
year. Thank you very much. Thanks.<br />

DEPUTY CHIEF DAVISON: Thank you very much, Chief<br />
Senecal.<br />
The guest speaker this evening is a person who many <strong>of</strong> us<br />
have known over the years from Vermont. We all know him<br />
being a person who has run for governor ever since 1962. We<br />
note today he has his poster or barn up and that he’s running<br />
again this year. But after losing each election, Danny says he<br />
starts running again the next day just as those who got elected.<br />
Again, the next day he’s right out there with all <strong>of</strong> the votegetting<br />
people.<br />
Danny is known as an outstanding person in his field <strong>of</strong><br />
Vermont politics, and some history. He’s done some writing<br />
and been on TV and everything, but we must say tonight that<br />
the <strong>New</strong> <strong>England</strong> <strong>Association</strong> <strong>of</strong> Fire Chiefs just does not<br />
endorse candidates. However, usually just the winners <strong>of</strong> an<br />
election get attention but not tonight because it’s my obligation<br />
to introduce a loser.<br />
Here to complete the introduction, please welcome Danny<br />
Gore from Avery’s Gore, Danny Gore, Representative Danny<br />
Gore.<br />
MR. DURWOOD GORE: Good evening, my name is Durwood<br />
Gore and I’m the son <strong>of</strong> Danny Gore, who’s been running for<br />
governor from the State <strong>of</strong> Vermont since 1962. He also had<br />
wise votes reported by scanner.<br />
This is my mother Delphine, you know, the consistent fans <strong>of</strong><br />
Danny Gore.<br />
