COMMITTEE INTEREST FORM

DEAR A.C.C. MEMBERSHIP,

AS WE NEAR THE END OF THE CALENDAR YEAR, I WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT AND THANK ALL WHO HAVE SERVED ON A COMMITTEE THIS PAST YEAR. COMMITTEE INVOLVEMENT AND WORK IS CRUCIAL TO HAVING STRONG GOVERNANCE AND A CLUB CULTURE THAT REFLECTS THE WANTS AND NEEDS OF THE MEMBERSHIP. PERHAPS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF COMMITTEE SERVICE IS UNDERSTANDING HOW THE CLUB WORKS AND BEING MORE INVOLVED IN THE DECISION MAKING PROCESS.

EACH YEAR AT THIS TIME A “COMMITTEE INTEREST FORM” IS CIRCULATED AND YOU WILL FIND THAT FOLLOWING THIS LETTER. THIS FORM IS NOT A GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE ASKED TO SERVE ON A COMMITTEE RIGHT AWAY, BUT IT DOES MAKE THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AWARE OF YOUR INTEREST IN BEING INVOLVED IN CLUB GOVERNANCE.

IF YOU HAVE SUBMITTED ONE OF THESE IN THE PAST YOU DO NOT NEED TO SUBMIT ANOTHER AS THESE ARE KEPT ON FILE. IF YOU HAVE NOT SUBMITTED ONE OF THESE IN THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS I WOULD ASK THAT YOU CONSIDER IF YOU HAVE AN HOUR A MONTH THAT YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE CONTINUED SUCCESS OF ACC. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT COMMITTEE SERVICE, BOARD SERVICE, OR THIS FORM PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT TO ME AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO DISCUSS THESE WITH YOU.

IF YOU ARE ASKED TO SERVE ON A COMMITTEE IN 2025 PLEASE KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE A MANDATORY COMMITTEE ORIENTATION ON JANUARY 14TH AT 5:30.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN SERVING AND I LOOK FORWARD TO A GREAT 2025!

SINCERELY,

PotofGoldThursdays

Thank you for joining us!

How it works:

Every member family has their name in the tumbler. One name will be drawn at random. The winner MUST BE PRESENT IN THE GRILL OR SADDLECLUB LOUNGE! The gold starts off at $300 in credit. Each week that the name drawn is not present, the name goes back in and the pot grows by $100 (capped @ $2000). This continues until someone wins and then the pot restarts at $300. So make your reservations, bring your friends, and come out to test your luck!

We draw every Thursday Night at 7pm!

Must be present with an open chit to win.

The next Winner will be our last for a while. We are going to take a pause as we approach the holiday season.
