BIA BOARD CHANGES
Longstanding BIA Volunteer, Paula Thompson Steps Down
Please join us in offering sincere gratitude and best wishes to Paula Thompson, of the Royal Bank, who is leaving her post as Chair of the Waterdown Business Improvement Area.
Paula has served as a volunteer on the BIA Board of Management for three terms! She joined as a Director, was Secretary on the Executive Committee and more recently, Paula Chaired the board, leading the organization through the challenging pandemic years.
We are so appreciative of the time and passion Paula has committed to support the growth and stability of the BIA and are excited to know she will remain in the community - as a resident and as part of a BIA member organization. Thank you Paula. Wishing you much happiness connecting with your soon-to-be-born baby girl. May you enjoy some much deserved time away from the board table as you prepare to settle into motherhood.
With Paula's resignation, Gord Manzer of The Cooperators Insurance moves from Vice Chair to Chair and Amanda Groves, of Groves Law, will step into the Vice Chair position.
Elections for the BIA Board of Management for the 2022 to 2026 term will coincide with the municipal elections later this fall. Business owners interested in supporting the BIA as a Director of the Board are invited to reach out to susan@waterdownvillage.ca for more information and to learned what is involved.
We love showcasing all that Waterdown Village has to offer. We hope you've seen our new 'Welcome' video promoting the BIA that resides on the home page of the new BIA website and is currently running as a sponsored ad on social media. Please help us extend reach to an even wider audience by sharing this video from your own social media sties.
