GNA Officer Nominations

A number of positions have been held over from previous years. Those positions, as well as

others, need new volunteers to fill them.

From current, outgoing president, Tommy Daniels:

The GNA provides vital services to our residents and occasional important coordination with city

officials. Holding office or managing a committee doesn't require much time and is the best

investment one can make in keeping Gordonston a great place to live. We especially need fresh

ideas and energy from our younger residents.

Elections will be held at 5 p.m. on December 12 at the park cottage, just prior to the holiday

party. Please consider running or volunteering for the following: President, Vice President,

Treasurer, Cottage Rentals, Membership, Newsletter Distribution, or GNA Email List.

See the included nomination form for more details.
