Chris Todd, Candidate for Membership Secretary, 2011
For nearly 4 months I've served at the Interim CBA Membership Secretary, and it has provided me with a wonderful opportunity to get to know many of our members. This is in addition to my responsibilities as your webmaster, with my 2nd anniversary coming mid-December. Both responsibilities have provided me the privileged of supporting the Blues in Northwest.
With two mailings for the Muddy Awards, Membership Lists for our events, and continual new and renewal memberships, I have come to appreciate the effort to run an organization of nearly 1000 members. In this short time as Interim CBA Membership Secretary, I have been able to improve on the membership process, with changes for more complete and accurate record keeping. I have also gotten to know the other Board Members, and have started some great new relationships.
With your support, I would like to turn my interim role as the CBA Membership Secretary into an elected role for 2011.
