STEP
FORWARD TO BE A BOARD CANDIDATE
It
is now time for you to make a difference in your community.
Candlewick needs the good people who have the best interests of our
community at heart to throw your hats into the ring to become a
board member. I know you are out there. I have met many who fill the
bill. Give it a shot.
I
mentioned in last month's article some of the things that will be
required of you. There will be monthly board meetings as well as
special meetings, retreats, and board workshops. You will be expected
to be a part of some committees, commissions, road clean-ups, and
other activities. To do the job right you will need to prepare for
meetings with research and have facts and figures to back up your
votes and opinions. Plan on this being a time consuming job. You will
receive phone calls, emails, and in-person questions and comments
from the residents. Yes, your votes will anger some no matter what
your position and that is just part of the situation you must accept.
On
the flip side you will meet some great people who work tirelessly to
better our way of life. You will be a part of decision making that
will affect us for years to come. All our resident's opinions matter
but it is on your shoulders to cast the vote.
There
will be one seat up for grabs this time. Be sure to look further into
this issue of our paper to see the qualifications as well as the
instructions for filing your resume' and application. Please consider
this if you are willing to put forth the effort to be a board member
that will give it your all. I hope to see several strong candidates
this time.
If
you want more information please feel free to call any board member.
We all are happy to help.
