Whilst there is no remuneration for this job, you will enjoy personal gratification and will be greatly appreciated by all of the members.

According to our by-laws, we need at least a President, Vice-President, Treasurer, and Secretary (the Treasurer and Secretary can be a combined position), on the Executive Board.
