The Friends of the Library for Hood County held its first meeting of the current FY, 2010-11, on June 10, 2010. In addition to nominees who had previously withdrawn their names from the Officer slate (see previous post, Board Officer Nominations Re-Open), Second VP-elect Susan Goodrich received an out-of-state offer and has moved away from the area. The Friends are fortunate that several Members stepped-up to the plate to fill posts on at least an interim basis:
Interim President: Mary Lee
First Vice-President: Vacant
Second Vice-President: Elisha Cernicek (previously installed as Recording Secretary)
Treasurer : Karen deFanchi (previously installed)
Interim Recording Secretary: Brenda Staples
Correspondence Secretary: Jane Vaughn (previously installed)
Board Nominations for the current FY are ongoing to fill vacant and interim posts. All members in good-standing may be considered for an Officer position. Nominations should be submitted to Nominating Chair Char Hitz. Self-nomination is deemed a leadership quality and, as such, is appreciated and welcomed.
Several Committee Chair posts will be opening, as well.
