Are you interested in helping shape Snohomish Lacrosse, make it be a better organization for your son or daughter to play in or know someone you think would be a good leader?
This year, several positions will be open on the Snohomish Lacrosse Board. The Board serves to provide guidance, set budget, and provide a structure for lacrosse in Snohomish. We continue to grow each year and with that growth comes bigger challenges like finding enough field space, coaches, and providing a good experience for all who play. We strive to uphold the mission statement of Snolax.
The positions that will be open at the end of this season in June are the following:
President – Responsibilities include oversight of the operations of the club, working with the board to establish a budget, fielding questions and concerns, and providing overall leadership for the club.
Treasurer – helping set the budget, day to day management of banking operations, reimbursement of purchases, knowledge of Quickbooks, knowledge of accounting.
Board Member – participate on the Board by providing input on discussions, keeping the interests of the entire club in mind, providing unbiased opinion.
The Board seeks to achieve reasonably equal representation from both boys and girls parents. Time commitment varies depending on the position but at minimum, there are about 6 Board meetings per year.
Not sure what you are getting yourself into? There will be a meeting in May you can attend with elections to occur in June.
I am also happy to talk with anyone about the commitment. It is a great opportunity to participate in Snolax in a different way with the ability to have input on its direction and growth. I highly encourage anyone to get involved or if you know someone who would make a good addition, let me know and I’ll be happy to reach out. If you are interested, please fill out the short Board application found under Documents> Forms on our website.
Enjoy the rest of the season!
