Appalachian Regional Healthcare System will recognize
the end of an era at its last 2008 board of trustees meeting.
A veteran board member of 26 years, Council Main
decided not to seek reappointment to the board when his term
expires at the end of this year.
Appointed to the Watauga Medical Center Board
of Trustees in January 1982, Main transitioned to the Appalachian
Regional Healthcare System Board of Trustees in 2004.
Main served as treasurer and chairman of the finance committee
for most of his 26 years and supported the organization and
its mission of providing health care for the High Country and
surrounding communities.
“Council has been a steady rock of influence
during his many years of service on the board,” said Richard
Sparks, president and CEO of Appalachian Regional Healthcare
System. “He was very instrumental in the negotiations
for purchase of properties that joined the medical center. His
even temperament, negotiation skills and his love for the institution
made him the ideal person to lead these endeavors. I will miss
his advice, his stories, his enthusiasm and his dedication as
a board member. We thank Council for his many years of
service and wish him well.”
