Contra Borealis Dancers held their annual meeting last night in conjunction with a benefit chili-fest for a dancer who lost her house in a fire a little while ago.

We approved last year’s minutes, had oral reports from various board and involved members from past year’s activities and for direction on this next year. We also did some cleanup on our 1998 bylaws by adding the position of vice-president and by assigning the selection of officers to the board rather than the general membership.

A new board was elected by the membership (24 people present):

Andie Rice
Gary Newman
Tom Lyngholm
Alan Braley
Theresa Vick
Will Hargrove
Kelly Egger
Curtis Watkins
Susan Delisa

Thanks went out to out-going president Barbara Braley for her many years of service. She volunteered to co-coordinate scheduling.

Following the annual meeting, the new board met and elected officers for the next year.

President: Andie Rice
Vice-president: Gary Newman
Tom Lyngholm: Secretary
Alan Braley: Treasurer
