April 2025
Please join us for the League’s annual meeting on Tuesday, April 1. This meeting provides our members the opportunity to shape our League for the coming year.
In an earlier March email, you received an annual meeting booklet in which you will note the agenda and board member reports. Please review the agenda to learn about those business items on which members will vote. If you missed the above-mentioned email, please check the LWVTSC website for the annual meeting booklet. As my term comes to a close, I thank League members for the opportunity you afforded me to serve as President. The strength of the LWVTSC lies in its membership – and the Board is the backbone in keeping our mission on track. Each Board member contributes their talent and time, and their different qualifications facilitate decision-making for the best of our organization and community.
This past year’s accomplishments could not have been attained without their commitment and direction. I thank you!
It has been an honor and pleasure to serve the League these past two years. I know our membership will be well served with the new leadership and Board of Directors that are now assuming office.
Welcome to Glenda as she assumes the President’s position. She is looking forward to working with the Board and League members in partnering in active voter engagement initiatives.
Together we continue the work of those who went before us!
