Executive Committee Nominations!

At the next chapter meeting, October 13th at 7pm at Fionn MacCools, we will be voting on the executive committee members. This is an extremely important decision as it decides on the management of the chapter for the coming year. You must be present to vote. Please join us!

At September’s chapter meeting these members self-nominated and were seconded for inclusion in the executive committee nominations:

• Erin Handy
• George Arco
• Danny Barley
• Tamil Singh

The Executive Committee is composed of 7 members. The positions include Chairman, Vice Chairman, Treasurer, Secretary, Volunteer Coordinator and two open slots for whatever the chapter needs (we typically make these Environmental Coordinator, Outreach Coordinator or Special Events Coordinator). There are obviously a few more slots to fill and more if we’d like to hold nominations versus just placing the willing and able!

Surfrider Foundation By Laws state that to vote, you must be a current Surfrider Foundation member and you must be physically present at the meeting. All nominations require members to self-nominate, be seconded and then voted on by the chapter. If you are an active Surfrider member that has been to at least three Surfrider events (meetings, fundraisers, cleanups, etc.) in the past year, you are eligible to run.

To quote are most inspiring member, Paulie, “Let’s make it happen!” Now is the time for fresh talent from motivated individuals.
