Dear Friends,<br />
I have the fortunate pleasure of serving our community as a Board member<br />
for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Skagit County. We are truly blessed by<br />
the engagement of our stakeholders as we work to further our mission:<br />
to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach<br />
their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. Our Board of<br />
Directors takes our charge very seriously in providing strong governance,<br />
fiscal oversight, and leadership to our dynamic staff team who executes in<br />
the most professional way possible, each and every day.<br />
As our organization has grown so significantly in the last few years, we are<br />
fortunate to have continued growing as a Board to support this. In <strong>2018</strong>, we<br />
welcomed new members Ross Roberts, Brian Soneda, Eric Johnson, Kristen<br />
Keltz, and Dan Milfred, all of whom began making an immediate impact<br />
in strengthening our organization. Over the last year, as a Board, we have<br />
been quite active. Our Board members have been invited to present to other<br />
organizations about best practices in Board Development and Resource<br />
Development, and we have adopted new policies regarding access to, and<br />
privacy of Club donor records, CEO and Board succession policies, and a<br />
policy for serving members with special needs. In recognition of the efforts<br />
of the Board of Directors, our organization was once again honored with a<br />
League of Eagles Award from Boys & Girls Clubs of America.<br />
I take pride in all that has been accomplished and thank you for your support,<br />
advocacy, and feedback and reflection which has continued to make<br />
us the best Boys & Girls Club organization we can be. Skagit County is a<br />
special place to live and work, and our Clubs are working hard to ensure it<br />
continues to be in the future, with a new generation of leaders ready to serve<br />
and be active in their community.<br />
Respectfully yours,<br />
