NEEDED MORE THAN EVER: BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The campaign to make Edgewood a preserve was carried forward by a group of eight to fifteen people who met every week or two for a couple of years until the task was done.

Now that Edgewood is a preserve, we need another body with the authority to make decisions. This group would be elected by ballot and would need to meet at least once a year to elect officers. Besides that, it would meet only as required by the circumstances. Votes could probably be rounded up by phone. So, you see, being on the board doesn’t have to involve a lot of meetings.

Currently, Carolyn Curtis is holding things together, but she has an obligation to be president of the local chapter of a large local organization starting January 1995, and thus won't be able to do justice to being the point person for Edgewood. Mostly, though, questions come up that should be decided by a group of people who speak for Edgewood, not just one person.

Please help your Preserve. It needn't take much time, it needn't be forever, your fellow board members are dedicated, convivial people (it's fun), and it's rewarding and satisfying.
