Outgoing President's Message
I have retired as club president after serving over 15 years. Virginia Creasy, of Knoxville, assumed this role on March 1, 2025, which is the beginning of the club's fiscal year. Virginia looks forward to serving you as the club's new leader. Cumberland Mycological Society has a bright future ahead.
Thank you, Virginia, and thanks to all of you for your continued support!
-Steve Roberts
former CMS President
