FOR THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT Vote for One Only | Eligible to vote: All active, probationary, retired, life, company and associate members Bill Mandlebaum I have been a locksmith since 1976 and an ALOA member since 1978. I own a small shop in Bowling Green, OH (The Brass Key Shop). I have one full-time and one part-time employee. I served three two- year terms as president of Penn-Ohio Locksmith Assn. I am still active in that association. I have been active with the Ohio Valley Chapter of ALOA. I have been on the Bylaws Committee for ALOA, and we have tried to make ALOA more member-friendly by rewriting the Bylaws so that members could vote by proxy on many items on the agenda. I would like to continue to make ALOA more member friendly. I would appreciate your vote. Noel Flynn Most of my career has been in senior business management, leadership, consulting and business owner roles, in many industries worldwide, including more than 20 years in the security door hardware in- dustry. Having served on ALOA’s board since 2011, chairman of several principal committees and be- ing an ACE instructor and author, I am intimately familiar with ALOA’s challenges and sincerely care about our organization. Although we are a 60-plus-year-old not-for-profit membership entity, it is crucial that we survive as a viable business! We endured the pandemic’s big financial hit in 2020, but 2021 ushered in a climate of extraordinary economic uncertainty and unprecedented serious threats to ALOA’s future. Frankly, perhaps more than ever, our organization needs ex- perienced, qualified business management leadership. Accordingly, I’m requesting your vote for me as ALOA’s President in the upcoming election. FOR THE OFFICE OF NORTH CENTRAL REGION DIRECTOR Vote for One Only | Eligible to vote: All active, probationary, retired, company and life members whose business address is in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Manitoba, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Northwest Territories, Ontario, South Dakota or Wisconsin Guy Spinello, RL I have been involved in the locksmith business since age 13; a full-fledged locksmith since 1969. My membership in the ALOA began in 1971 (Membership #3306). I was extremely active and supportive in developing modern day standards for locksmithing through my affiliation with ALOA and working with other locksmiths with similar goals at the local and regional level. My background includes all facets of security sales, service and installation, including consultation, planning and installation of complex security systems from specialized locking devices to video surveillance and retrieval systems. I have served as North Central Director previously from 2003-2009. I would bring to the ALOA a background of 50 years of experience, honed by technological hands-on involvement in manage- ment and technical savvy. I would work to encourage unity throughout the locksmithing field. I would support ongoing training programs for all practicing locksmiths. I would work to have locksmiths revered as professionals.
