Dear GRAPE Members,
Wow…I can’t believe the time is near for me to finish out as President of GRAPE. The past two years have been quite the whirlwind of the unexpected, but amazing none the less. I have to say we have the most resilient and dedicated members that make GRAPE the great organization that it is. I am proud to be a member and to have served as your President.
As well as my time coming to an end on the board, I would like to recognize others who have served on the board and will be finishing out their terms.
Thank you to:
Andrew Hastings, Treasurer
Ramona Stein, Secretary
Trisha Fast, Member at Large
We have committee chairs that will be stepping down, but there are others who will be stepping up to fill these positions. Most of the members listed below will remain on their committees or involved in another way with GRAPE.
Thank you to:
Alison Bearer, Gala Committee
Meghan Little, Gala Committee
Marie Candelora, Marketing Committee
Becky Carrigan, Marketing Committee
Nancy Hickey, Membership Committee
Mike Kearney, Program Committee
Again, a big thank you to all outgoing board and committee chair members for their time and continued dedication to GRAPE. A huge thank you to Carol Bartlett, our Executive Director who did an amazing job getting us through COVID and will continue to guide us forward.
It has been my extreme privilege and honor to have served as your president. I know our incoming President, Marie Candelora along with Carol will move us forward and continue to help us grow.
All my Best,
Kim
