Welcome to Sonoma County NOW
President's Message January 2023 Dear NOW friends, This month, we were to hold elections for new board members. As previously mentioned, when we redid the bylaws this summer, we set elections to take place on the 31st of January of a given year, with newly-elected officers to begin February 1 of that year. At this time, however, we do not have enough people showing interest in becoming an officer. At this point, I would like to step down as president and allow someone else to lead us into 2023. According to our bylaws here, we need to have a president and a treasurer to run the chapter. We encourage everyone to run for office, particularly because it's easier to be active if we have committee members, a secretary, and vice president(s). Our chapter has been around for decades and we want to continue to be engaged with the community. Please consider what part you can play, how your skills can be useful. We are still looking for NOW members to run, for all positions. Our board members have been serving for two years (or more) already and it's time for fresh ideas from our members to move forward. We've had some wonderful events over the years and been very active in the community; help keep us successful. We need YOU! We ask that all interested parties provide a short bio and why you would like to serve. Please write to info@nowsonoma.org if you are interested in running for office or if you can help with projects in the coming year. ****************************************
--Amy Nykamp, President
