Simply put, the Board’s attention is devoted to 1) training and building itself into an effective governing body, and 2) systematically improving and strengthening the Club so it can be sustained long into the future. Key to both of these efforts is the discipline of following our Strategic Plan. Thank You!

The training focused on the duties each Board member must fulfill as we deal with the challenges facing the Club.
