Call for SCSC Board Members

Positions for the three-year terms of three Board Members are concluding with the 2006 swim season. These Board Members may run again and other General Members may run to obtain a position. The election of Board members takes place by vote of general membership with the Fall General Membership meeting. Upon election to the Board, the Board decides what position is best suited to a new member (i.e., you do not "run" for a specific position).

This volunteer position will enable you to be part of the decision-making team for our Swim Club. Though there are specific duties for each Board Member, we work together to ensure SCSC's smooth operation and maintain its excellent reputation. Each Board Member is voted in by the membership to serve a three-year term. You must commit to attending mandatory monthly meetings year round and must have a working internet connection to address Members concerns in a timely manner. This is not a paid position, but Board Members' seasonal dues are waived.

Please submit your name (along with your bond number) as a candidate and include the following to be published in our fall newsletter:

  1. A brief bio
  2. Explain why you would like to be a member of the Board of Directors

Submit your information via e-mail or postal mail. Deadline is September 15th, 2006. E-mail info@southcarrollclub.com with the subject line Board Member candidate.

Send mail to the attention of Judi Van Parys, SCSC, PO Box 1183, Sykesville MD 21784.

Update Your Family Photos!

Membership thanks those who remembered to provide updated photos of their family this year with their renewal. This is the only way that guards can distinguish members from nonmembers so it is imprtant to keep them up-to-date. If your family has grown or changed and you need to update your photo, please do so before the end of the swim season. Simply drop your picture off at the guard office with your name and Bond number or e-mail the picture to membership@southcarrollclub.com.
