I am very happy to share that our chapter moves forward with a strong and positive future ahead. I proudly announce the 2010 Board of Directors for FCC-SoCal. They are:

• Co-Presidents:  Maureen Hemler and Sarah Koff
• Secretary: Alice Goldstone
• Treasurer:  Jeroen van  Meijgaard
• Director of Charitable Initiatives: Judy Perlstein
• Co-directors of Communications:  Ben and Marcia Luce
• Director of Member Resources: Amy van Haam

• Director of Outreach: Susan Robinson
• Director of Parent Education:  John Drimmer
• Orange County Regional Group Representatives: Ann Marie Rousseau & Teri Sforza
• Board at Large:   Judy  Marasco, Albert Olson, Priscilla Hefley

 
The board is composed of a diverse group.  Some are long time Board Members with much experience, while others are new Board Members who bring new light to FCC.  All are eager to represent FCC-SoCal in the year 2010.  The board looks forward to introducing you to our new board members.

As you know, this is a volunteer run organization.  There is room for you and your energies, whether you can take on a big responsibility or a smaller one.  We need your support and involvement.  Help make this year a successful one for our children.  Contact any of the board members to express your interest.

As planned, I am stepping down as interim co-chair and from the board on January 31.
It has been my pleasure to play a bit part in the continuing journey of our organization.  I will always remain an active volunteer within FCC-SoCal.  FCC-SoCal has given my family a place to grow and learn together.

See you soon.  Maybe I'll see you at the Chinatown Firecracker Run.

Peace to you in the Year of the Tiger.
