Planning Underway for WCC Annual Meeting
Planning Underway for WCC Annual Meeting
WCC’s 32nd Annual Meeting is fast approaching on Saturday, October 13 at Battlement Mesa’s Activity Center (398 Arroyo Dr). A key feature of the day is WCC’s annual business meeting, with a number of opportunities for member input.
Election of officers
WCC’s Nominating Committee will be proposing its slate of candidates for the offices of WCC President and Treasurer at the July 21 Board meeting. However, members may also submit nominations, but they must be submitted to the Board by its meeting on September 8.
Candidates must be WCC members in good standing. Nominees for the office of President must have served on the WCC Board previously for at least three regular meetings. Additionally, WCC bylaws stipulate that a majority of the officers shall be members from one of WCC’s community groups.
If you wish to make a nomina-tion, please contact WCC President Gretchen Nicholoff at (970) 527-3997.
Worley Award
The Chuck & Betsy Worley Award is given annually to an outstanding volunteer to WCC or one of its community groups. To nominate someone, submit a statement, which ennumerates the volunteer’s contributions to the organization and dates of any positions held, to Gretchen Nicholoff (see above) by August 31. Individuals or community groups may make a nomination. Last year’s honorees were Dave Devanney from Battlement Mesa and Noalani Terry from Montrose.
Resolutions
WCC members may submit resolutions to be considered for approval at the Annual Meeting. Proposed resolutions need to appear in the August/September Clarion (deadline August 17). If you wish to submit a resolution, or have questions about proper format or previous resolutions on a particular issue, please contact Brenda at (970) 210-5242.
