Election of Officers and Call for Volunteers:

• You can ask to be nominated for any of the listed positions.
• Names of current nominees are listed on the chart. Most are current executive members who are willing to stay on.
• However we are actively seeking new board members.
• Some positions can be shared, as there is always plenty to do. For example, we have 2 Co-Chairs.
• We also have an executive position called “Member at Large”. This allows people to be on the executive without a specific “portfolio” and to contribute in a variety of ways as per your interests. Some of our current board members started as Member at Large and then “specialized”.
• Please see the CPCA organizational chart to get some ideas of how you might contribute if you are interested in becoming an executive member or non-executive volunteer.
• If you are thinking of joining the executive/board in the future, attending some of our open executive meetings (advertised on our website) is a good way to familiarize yourself with the work of the community association.

To be added to the slate of executive/board member nominees for the election, contact CoChair1 CPCA, at champlainpark@gmail.com

Please provide: Name, Position/area of interest

Also see the Community Plan for a description of our activities. Contact the listed co-ordinator if interested in a specific volunteer area.
