2020 Board Members Needed

10/9/2019

 
At the October Guild meeting the need for people to fill leadership positions was discussed.  Without volunteers for these position it is likely the Guild will fold at the end of 2019.  

The Open Positions are:
  • President:  Serve as leader at all guild meetings and Board meetings; responsible for the overall management of the guild.  This position was vacant in 2019.  
  • Treasurer:   Rosemary P will meet with the new treasurer to hand over all the key information and explain her duties
  • Webmaster:  Develop and maintain the guild’s website which includes
    o Weekly tasks (PayPal reports)
    o Monthly tasks (Uploading newsletter, calendar, photos, events, etc.)
    o Yearly tasks (Update board information, registration forms) as well as “as needed” tasks
    - Time Requirement: 5 hours per month and attend board meetings.  The website has been moved to a new webhost (Weebly) in 2019 and is easy to maintain.  Laura O. has documented the new  website and is happy to provide a hand-off for the transition.   
  • Newsletter Editor:  Rebekah would be happy to meet with the new editor to explain the whole process. She currently creates the newsletter using Adobe InDesign, but you can use any program you have access to and are comfortable with and should feel free to make it your own. Previous editors have used Microsoft Publisher, Word, and other programs.
  • Monthly Program Coordinator
    - Coordinate the programs for monthly meetings
    - Survey members to gather topics of interest and volunteers to present the program
    - Time Requirement: 2 to 5 hours per month and attend board meetings
  • Weekend Workshop Coordinator:   Coordinate weekend workshops
    - Lead the committee to plan and run workshops
    - Time Requirement: 1 to 4 hours per month preparing minutes and attend board meeting

Contact us for additional information and/or to be put in touch with the current board members.
