Join Our Board! Make a Difference

Looking to make a difference in our community? Consider joining the POBCOC board of directors. Five seats will be on this year’s election ballot at the May membership meeting on the 17th. If you are interested in being nominated for the POB COC board (or would like to nominate a qualified candidate), please consider the following criteria: To be eligible to run, you must be a Chamber member in good standing for more than one year; you must be willing to attend both monthly general membership meetings on the 3rd Wednesday of the month and board meetings once a month, usually the first week (on alternating days and times). You will also be expected to assume committee chair positions.

The Board currently consists of 15 members, each with a three-year term.  The election will take place at the Mid-Island Y JCC, and each nominee will have an opportunity to address the membership. Officers of the Chamber will be elected at the next ensuing Board meeting.

Applications are due April 14th. See below. Please send them via email (or any questions) to the Nominating Committee Co-Chairs, Andrea Goldman: info@familycollegeexperience.com or Andrew Lamkin: andrew@lamkinelderlaw.com.
