Board elections take place each April. We are currently canvassing the club to find individuals who are interested in serving on our CRFG Board in the coming year.
If you are considering a position, please fill out the Navigating the Future/Informal Interest Inventory below.
The full duties of the board positions are included at this link.
You’ll see under Article 4 Section E that the Past Chairperson will assist with the continuity of the Board as it moves forward. We are grateful to have Marcia as our mentor. The other board members have also shown their willingness to give guidance to their successors.
Please fill in your name and the positions that you are interested in, either now or in the future. You may also recommend a fellow member for any position. On Tuesday, April 28th, 2026, a slate of candidates will be presented at the meeting. The voting process will seal the deal that night.
To help the committee out, it would be best if you return your input sooner rather than later. We’ve been receiving great responses, and are eager to hear back from you all. Thank you for your interest!
