Deadline to Get on the WCC Election Ballot is Feb 14th

Dear WCC Members,
Our Board of Directors (BOD) election process is well underway. This year two seats are up for election as directors Matt Haid and Nancy Todd’s terms are coming to an end. WCC directors are elected to three-year terms. Election is open to any Member in good standing; however, only one person from a membership may serve on the Board at a time. 
Joining the board is a unique opportunity to serve the membership of the Wigwam Country Club (WCC). As a Director you will have the opportunity to develop and execute ideas that will continue to enhance the experience of our members, adding value to our membership. There will be opportunities to aid in planning social events, golf tournaments, tennis events, and much more. The BOD is looking for individuals who are interested in furthering our community and bringing new ideas to the table.  
The WCC has several committees dedicated to ensuring the club functions run smoothly for our members.  Election to the BOD is purely voluntary, and Directors are expected to serve on one of our seven committees: Social, Golf Tournament, WWGA, Tennis, Grounds and Greens, Handicap, and Nominating. The Chairs and their committees are responsible for scheduling event dates, times, venues; building formats; food and beverage plans; and managing their BOD allocated budgets. Committee Chairs are required to submit a report at each monthly Board meeting. Board meetings usually take place from October to May. 
How to apply:

• Submit a letter of intent detailing your qualifications and why you are running, as well as a photo, to Vice President Matt Haid ([email protected]) and to Secretary Oliveira ([email protected]).
• Letters and Photos are due no later than 2/14/2024. 

What is the process?

• All qualified nominees will be presented to the Board by VP Matt Haid during the 3/13/2023 board meeting. Approved nominees will be contacted and informed that they are candidates for election.
• The candidate names will be posted in alphabetical order on WCC bulletin boards.
• Candidate letters and photos will be published in the March & April editions of the Wigwam Update Newsletter. 

Voting will open 4/1/2024 and close at midnight 4/14/2024 and will take place electronically. Only one vote per membership will be accepted. Election Judge Kevin McElvain will verify the results and certify the election. The candidates will be informed of the results by VP Matt Haid. Results of the Election will be announced via email on 4/18 and the introduction of the new Board of Directors for the new season will be done at the Annual Meeting on April 28, 2024. 
I would like to personally encourage any of you to apply for these open positions and help make your ideas a reality.  
Matt Haid,
V.P. and Nominating Chairman
