Dear Friends,<br />
The first half of the year has been an exciting one, for many reasons. As<br />
a resident of Burlington, and a Board member who has looked forward to<br />
this, the return of our Clubs to the community year-round is monumental.<br />
Because of a strong partnership built over many years, the Burlington-Edison<br />
School District and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Skagit County are now<br />
operating a 21st Century Community Learning Center together at Lucille<br />
Umbarger School. Each provides respective expertise to enhance the program<br />
to benefit those youth who need us most.<br />
As my term of President of the Board of Directors winds down, I reflect<br />
on all that has been accomplished with your support. Not only recently,<br />
during my time in a leadership position, but historically. We could not be<br />
as responsive to community need without you. Our Board members take<br />
their representative charge seriously, and to honor what you empower us<br />
to do, we have built additional capacity in our Board through the adoption<br />
of best practices, ensuring organizational transparency, and creating a<br />
succession plan for sustainability.<br />
Tina Asp, owner of Image360 in Burlington, will be our next President of the<br />
Board, effective in January, and has been working toward that transition<br />
with intentionality. We are also fortunate that Rob Martin, Retired Founding<br />
CEO of Chinook Enterprises will follow Tina in 2022-23. We have worked<br />
hard to align our work with the Strategic Plan that was a product of your<br />
feedback and reflections, and this is demonstrated by the succession work<br />
through ‘Strengthen the Organization’. When Leadership is identified and<br />
prepared, it is known to positively impact the mission.<br />
Thank you for being on this journey with us, as we work to provide Great<br />
Futures for kids and teens in our communities, especially those who need<br />
us most, so they may reach their full potential as productive, caring,<br />
responsible citizens.<br />
Respectfully yours,<br />
Holly Shannon<br />
