I am so sorry to miss, not only our meeting today, but I’m further disappointed to miss our speaker, Mr. Jason Hernandez, who has an amazing, educational and inspirational story to share with us and someone who is putting himself forward to not only make amends but to help others make better choices that impact everyone. I hope you all enjoy!
As mentioned, I will not be able to make the meeting today but it's an important meeting and I feel like you all should hear from me in person, hopefully next month, but in the meantime I felt it necessary to report where we are as a club. As you have heard me beg/announce at every meeting we need to put together a new slate of officers for next year. As of today, I do not have a slate to present to you. I have several wonderful souls that have stated that they are happy to help with certain things but I do not have a slate to present for the executive board member positions. The past few years there have been a handful of us that have been running the club and several of us have reached a point/need to move on, not that we don't love you all but our schedules are not allowing the time necessary for us to focus on the club the way we would like. That is leaving the club basically with all positions open and available.
So where do we sit? That is up to you as a club. Do you see a need for this club to continue? Maybe we have reached a moment whereby we agree we have had some lovely lunches, programs, style shows and bazaars together but maybe disbanding is now upon us? That being said, maybe we have a few ladies that can help organize style shows and bazaars 3-4 times a year rather than continue the club in its current format?
We need to hear from you and ask that you click this link to complete the feedback form so we can report what we as a club are thinking at our last meeting of the year in May (Chico Style show). Thank you in advance for your time!
