PLEASE, if you’re signed up on the Den for the cookout, please, please, please take your name off the signups the minute you learn you won’t be there. There are almost always folks on the waiting list eager to take your place.
Board Candidates – Last week, Director Mike Rocheleau tendered his resignation from the Board of Directors. Clearly, he has left a big void in our leadership and governance. We are seeking qualified, motivated members to replace him. Please send an email to the Club expressing your interest in holding a Director’s seat and explain why you believe you could contribute to our Board and Club. Send us an email. See below.
