FOCCC Looking For a Few Good Men and Women

At the upcoming Annual Meeting, FOCCC members will vote on potential Board members for a two-year term. We are fortunate to have several current Board members willing to serve again. These include Mike and Cecil Williams, Alan Craig, and Rene Donaldson. Also willing to serve is Pat Parran, who has been attending Board meetings and taking minutes.  Continuing members of the Board, who were elected for two-year terms last year, are Reed Peters, Sheri Ashley, Bob Ashley, Rick Beno, Stevie Wayman and Kim Vicariu.  Even if this slate is approved by the membership, the Board will still have a few vacancies.

To fill vacancies on the Board, the FOCCC Bylaws allow new members to be added during the year by a vote of the Board. We strongly encourage anyone considering serving to contact a Board member for more information. This is a working board, so Board members are expected to do more than attend meetings and vote. Thus, members gain satisfaction from shepherding projects and activities that contribute to our mission. If you wish to have an impact in this way, please step forward. 

The Canyon Needs You!
