This evening we will be looking at the upcoming opportunities available on SLMQG’s Board. There will be a number of vacancies on the Board in 2025. We ask you to consider contributing to our vibrant guild. We have a wonderful guild and need some of our wonderful members to help it grow and keep it running smoothly.
Do you have ideas for workshops and speakers you’d like to see visit our guild? Can you help with social media? Help on sub-committees for events and challenges? Are you a whizz with finances? Could you help organize and set up events or procure prizes or sponsorship from quilty businesses?
Tonight we will go over the various positions available, what sort of a commitment is requested, and how to vote.
YOUR GUILD NEEDS YOU!!!!
