It's a year of big transition for IFMA Boston as the board of directors changes over as of July 1st. We welcome the new chapter president, Alicia Dernier, Creative Office Pavilion. Dernier has long been a chapter resource, having served in numerous committee and board positions for more than 10 years. She brings the best of all worlds to the chapter, with great perspective for all positions, a sense of the history of the chapter, while offering new ideas and fresh enthusiasm to see the chapter prosper and serve the community.
Other new board members for the 2010-2011 season are:
*Richard Christiano, new vice president of education;
*Dawn Borden, new vice president of activities; and
*Bill Walsh, new vice president of membership.
IFMA Boston says thanks and farewell but not goodbye to four longstanding board members:
*Sean Murphy, past president;
*Judylynn Monaco, formerly treasurer;
*Tom Smart, formerly vice president of membership; and
*Lori Stewart Coletti, past president.
The chapter and community are grateful for their years of service and will not let any of them get too far from the action!
IFMA Boston's new Board for 2010, in addition to those above, is:
*Kate Thibeault, immediate past president;
*Joe Flynn, president elect;
*Jessamine Wigfall, secretary/treasurer; and
*Stacy Chambers, vice president of communication.
They've got a great year lined up and are looking forward to hearing from you, so please visit www.ifmaboston.org to see the calendar of upcoming events and news, and welcome the new board when you see them on the Schmooze Cruise on July 15­th!
A happy and safe July Fourth holiday from IFMA Boston!
