HELP CWC GOING!

Will you volunteer to assist/shadow a board member for the coming year and then step into their shoes for 2024-2025? We especially need Treasurer, Event Chairs and a new President(s). You can find a description of our board roles below. Aside from board members, we would appreciate any amount of time or effort you might be able to contribute in a volunteer role. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or join us as a guest for any of our upcoming board meetings which are open to the public. Thank you! CWCPresidents@gmail.com
