Dear fellow boosters:
The nomination committee is beginning the search for candidates to serve on the Executive Committee for next year. Per our by-laws we are to submit a list of nominations at our May meeting.
If you have any interest in serving on the nominating committee, would like to enter your name for nomination, or have any questions regarding the positions on executive committee please feel free to contact me or any present executive committee member.
Below I have listed the positions and terms as defined by our by-laws. Please consider volunteering for these and or other positions in the organization as our students and band directors greatly benefit from the efforts of the AWBB.
Respectfully,
Doug Michael
Past Booster President
