Dear Members,
Judy and I are trying to fill 3 primary positions on the board: Secretary, Vice-President and President. We have approached a few members but have gotten declines for one reason or another. Please understand that for Cypress to continue to thrive takes leadership. We are hoping that by reaching out to the whole membership that some of you will step up to assume these positions.
Taking minutes doesn’t have to be complicated. It can be as simple as summarizing the agenda item discussed and flagging any decision or action step required.
The VP position is fun. You work with the caterers and set up the dining room for the luncheon’s. There are many volunteers who help with this, including board members and hostesses. Judy will be available to help with the transition.
The President’s position isn’t as daunting as it sounds for one very important reason: virtually everyone i have worked with on the board does what they say they are going to do. The same is true of volunteers. Mostly, the job is developing the board and luncheon agendas and leading the luncheon program. I’ve never once in 2 years had to step in to pick up a ball that someone dropped! As Immediate Past President, I will continue on the board in an advisory capacity. Thus, I too am available to help with the transition.
If you are willing to serve please reach out to Judy or Steph.
Thank you for your consideration,
Judy and Steph
