The WHCA board has been busy these past couple of months. There’s a lot going on—there’s just so much to do. One of the tasks in a process is a bylaw revision. Such matters are no fun, but they are important. A recent review of the bylaws highlighted a simple fact that’s gone unnoticed for some time. Also, our level of activity—the WHCA board is one body short! So, we are announcing a call for volunteers for the vice president position.
The role of the Vice President, which has been vacant for a considerable time, is a little nebulous. Along with the President, Secretary, and Treasurer, the vice president is a member of the executive committee. They could sometimes be called upon to stand in for the President, chair a meeting, or take on any of a variety of tasks.
Historically, the Vice President was tasked with organizing the annual 4th of July Kids Parade. However, since we’ve not had a VP for some time, others have most recently organized that event. A newly minted VP could engage in any way that fits their sphere of interest. Leverage their strengths.
Suppose you love our little hometown close to downtown, and have thoughts about its future. In that case, this is your chance to help steer the civic association and, by extension, the neighborhood as a whole. Interested parties who are WHCA members can contact me directly.
