SCU Executive Committe Positions for 2024
 
It’s time to think about SCU in 2024 and how you might want to contribute by becoming a member of our Executive Committee (EC). Elections are coming up in November 2023, and now is the time to start thinking about filling those positions!!
 
 The current SCU Executive Committee, is comprised of the following members including President (Steve Muth - recently back, more on that below), Treasurer (Savannah Lee), Secretary (Jim Hill), Ride Director (Curtis Schwartz), Social Director (Chrislee Butcher), Public Relations Director (Linda McGrane), Membership Director (Pat Butcher), Digital Communications Director (Steve DeLabio), and Information Technology Director (Scott Siegfried).
 
Vacancies for the upcoming 2024 include:
  • IT Director
  • Digital Communications Director
  • Signature Event (Century) Director
As part of our efforts to ensure we assemble the best possible slate of candidates, the deadline for submission of applications and accompanying biographical sketches is Monday Oct 23
 
The EC is elected to these positions by the membership and serves for a minimum of one (1) year terms. Candidates can be self-nominated or the EC can solicit nominees. Every year all EC positions are open for anyone with the drive and interest to help the Club, and this year is no different. The only requirement to being on the EC is that you be a member in good standing (per the SCU Bylaws) for at least 60 days prior to the publication of your biographical submission (which will occur in October 2023). The President must also have prior EC service as defined and stipulated in the SCU Bylaws. So, if you have the desire and some good ideas to share, now is the time to step forward and be a “cog” in the SCU wheel! If you are unsure as to what duties the position may entail, feel free to contact me or any of the current EC members! Like all good wheel sucking vampires, we thrive on “new blood”, and will be eager to mentor you into any one of these new roles for your Club!

I’ll be coordinating any interest, so any prospective nominees/volunteers can contact me at jeffbicycle@comcast.net. Whether you are an existing EC member and would like to consider another year in your current position or are an SCU member in good standing and want to throw your hat into the ring for a new position, please contact me. Note that anyone expressing an interest (including repeat “offenders”) should provide a brief “bio” and picture to me with the EC position of interest, qualifications, plus any pertinent background info prior to October 23, 2023. All such bio information for each position nominee will then be posted for the membership to view. The elections will be held in November. Election details will be provided in a separate announcement.

Thank you for your attention to this very important matter; we look forward to hearing from you; you can email me at jeffbicycle@comcast.net if you are interested or have questions.

SCU Election Coordinator (2023 EC Election)

In addition, Steve Muth has been named interim President (coming back) as this position has been vacant so far in 2023.  The upcoming club picnic on October 28 will serve an open general membership meeting to address any questions or concerns that members may have.
