Members should please send their nominations to Bert by email here. Nominees must have agreed to stand. The nominations close date is 5pm Friday, October 27th.
The current Chapter Executive Board endorses and recommends the following volunteer (for the role of Treasurer) and for Octavian Codreanu to continue in his current role as Chapter VP, and we (the Board) offer the following comments in support of each:
Chapter Treasurer: Chuck Shipman. Serving the Chapter as organizer and leader of our more recent Pancake Breakfasts and, in past years, as the Chapter Hangar Manager, Chuck has demonstrated time and again his commitment and organizational skills to be of great value to the Chapter and to the membership. He is a regular and reliable contributor to Chapter events and happenings. More particularly, his experiences in estimating, procuring and overseeing the fine details of the pancake breakfast events have impressed the Board who would welcome him to the role of Treasurer.
Chapter Vice President: Octavian Codreanu. As a Board Member for several years now, Octavian has contributed much to the operation and general direction of the Chapter, with his oversight of Chapter meetings, Fly-Outs and his general oversight of activities and the Chapter investments and funding management. His very evident managerial capabilities and experience in leadership have served the Chapter well, particularly during the challenging months of Covid-19 and the re-establishment of the Chapter following. His contribution overall, matched with his energy and enthusiasm for aviation, have helped the Board and Chapter throughout his tenure to date.
