Are you interested in being part of the WSGS Board of Directors? The positions of vice president and treasurer are up for election and we are seeking nominations. The nomination period will close on 15 Nov 2024.
The vice president position provides support to the president. In the case that the president is unable to preside over a meeting or event, the vice president would be required to step in and take his/her place. The vice president also acts as a liaison between the societies and the WSGS president and board, helping to facilitate communications between the board and the societies.
The treasurer manages WSGS financial matters under the direction of the president, executive committee and board of directors.
The two-year terms are from 01 Jan 2025 through 31 Dec 2026. More information on the positions’ duties and responsibilities is available here.
Being a member of the WSGS Board is an excellent opportunity to involve yourself in a statewide organization designed to support local societies and individuals interested in the educational and historical value of genealogical research. And besides that — it’s fun and interesting!
If you’re interested in this opportunity or have questions, please contact WSGS President Kathy Sizer.
As the out-going Vice President, I encourage every reader to consider nominating yourself. The Board needs people from all over the state, with various backgrounds and experience. You need never have served on a Board before, nor be an experienced genealogist. All you need is a willingness to support our mission of supporting the genealogical community of Washington. See https://wasgs.org/cpage.php?pt=53 for more specific objectives.
All the best,
