BEST WEEKEND

The final weekend was the best weekend of the year! It snowed Saturday about 8” and then Sunday the sun came out for a beautiful spring day. Thank you for another great season to all our members!

Sue and kitchen staff worked hard all season to keep us well fed. Thank you for all your hard work and we all look forward to next season!

Thank you to all who volunteered this past season and those that worked behind the scenes!

 

BOARD NEWS

At the March 23rd board meeting which was attended by approximately 25 club members via zoom, five board members resigned from their positions and left Paul Waug, Ron Kimball, Karl Hanson and Keenan Cooper to rebuild the board. Paul Waug will serve as interim president until the board can fill the vacant positions per the bylaws of succession and vote on officers. The board would like to thank the resigning board members for serving the club during some difficult years.

On April 1st Paul was approached by secretary/treasurer, Katie Sturgeon, with her letter of resignation after a short year. The board appreciates the time that Katie gave to the club.

Moving forward the board is asking the membership for members who would like to fill the vacant terms left on the board. Please email Paul Waug your letter of interest to the board positions at waugelect@aol.com.

 

GOOD NEWS

Sue has rescinded her resignation and will be back in the kitchen next season to continue serving her chicken noodle soup! Pretty sure she will bring back those familiar faces in the kitchen as well.

 

The board has asked Norma Roelfsema to step back in to resume the secretary-treasurer position for the time being.
