“We are appreciative to have the four elected directors continuing on the board for another three-year term,” said President and CEO Lynn Saunders. “We will miss Deirdra Walsh, Northstar California who was elected, but has since left the area. The board has become a strong, cohesive and highly-functioning, many with great historical knowledge that will serve the organization well in this time of reimagining and innovation. The board recently participated in a visionary strategic planning session, discussing new, innovative ideas and opportunities. Having this group of leaders in place will be essential in the implementation of a new, dynamic organizational transition strategic plan.” 

Emily Vitas assumes the Chair of the Board position effective July 1.
