December 2023 News & Updates from the Villages of Kensington
The Villages of Kensington Board Has Been Busy! During the COVID years, it was challenging for the Villages of Kensington to continue providing services in a safe way. Now that the worst is over, the VoK Board is hard at work getting things back to normal. This is the first issue of our re-energized newsletter. We plan to publish bi-monthly, starting with December 1st. New leaders in place. After many years on the VoK Board, including many years as President, Michael Landa has stepped down from his leadership position. Louis Tenenbaum, who had been an interim co-president, also stepped down. A nominating committee presented a new slate of officers, all of whom were approved. All Board members have updated bios on the website under Governance and Leadership. ● ● ● ●

Next steps, to be completed over the next few months, are to establish committees of Board members and other interested parties and to fill Board vacancies. VoK Board members are eager to hear from you. Last month we created and emailed a survey to all members so we could “formally” learn about you and your interests. Thanks to all of you who completed and returned the survey. We received around 30 responses, which is just over 25% of our members. Given your interest in completing the survey, we thought that you would be equally interested in hearing about some of the results. Members offered a wide variety of ideas about other programs that could be offered. Here are 5 prominent responses from survey respondents.
