| President's Message November 2024 From Mark Kennedy Dear Fellow Newcomers and Neighbors, The Board of Directors and I look forward to seeing you at the General Membership Meeting of the Newcomers & Neighbors Club scheduled for Wednesday, November 13th, at 1:00 PM at the WECU Education Center at 511 E Holly in Bellingham. The meeting room is on the ground floor, and there is plenty of off-street parking in the parking lot attached to the building. The meeting has been called to obtain your feedback regarding the monthly meeting, but the Board would like to hear from you on any topic of interest or concern to you. The Nominating Committee will also present the names of members who are candidates for the positions of President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Membership Director. As you know, the continued vitality and success of Newcomers & Neighbors depends on the willingness of its members to contribute their time and energy to the on-going running and functioning of the club. It is also important that we fill these positions because we are required to do so by Washington State code governing non-profit organizations. If you are interested in serving on the Board of Directors, please contact either Mary Capule, Nancy Cowan, or me by phone, text, or email. Our contact information is available in the Member Directory on the home page of the website. Or you can reply to this email. We will be happy to discuss with you the role and responsibilities of the position that you are interest in. We ask that you sign up for the meeting so we can make adequate preparations for the number of attendees. You can register by clicking on November General Membership Meeting. I look forward to seeing you at the monthly forum on November 13th if not before at one of the many planned activities for November. Mark | Our Facebook Page |
