Annual Meeting Today!

We are going to try to squeeze in our meeting between rain showers today!
 
The LHST bylaws call for an annual meeting at the end of the season to conduct business, including the election of officers.  Board members serve 1 year terms, and may serve a maximum of 3 1-year terms on the board.  The retiring board members for this year are me (chairman), Mark Fischer (Vice chair), Kathy Danielson (Treasurer), Peggy McNult (RSL Rep) and Jeannette Getch (Membership Chair).
 
The slate of officers to be placed in nomination at the meeting are:

a.       Chairman-(vacant)

b.      Vice Chair-Cheryl Wendt

c.       Secretary-Hope Wood

d.      Treasurer-Mary Miller

e.      RSL Representative-Michael O’Donoghue

f.        Membership Chair-Michele Freemyers

g.       Fundraising Chair-Stacey Ostlund

h.      Meet director- Carey Pohanka

i.         Concessions Chair-Chris Hensen and Maureen Hayes

j.        Social Chair-Mihwa Jent

k.       Equipment Chair-Phil Farmer

l.         At-Large-Chris Kraynak

m.    At-large-Mark Haines

 
You will notice that the Chairman slot is vacant.  The board has been contacting individuals to volunteer to serve in this very important role, and so far, no one has agreed to serve as Chair. We need someone to step up, and we need you to step up NOW!  Last year, we put out a call for RSL training, and we had 18 volunteers complete training, so I know there is a capable president candidate receiving this email.

Finals Report!!

Great job done today by our Patriot Division Champion Lee's Hill Lightning! We finished 4th in the division finals today. Many of our swimmers cut times, some by very significant margins!

5:30-team awards
6:15-Annual Meeting (swimmers dismissed to the pool)
