MEMBER ELECTIONS AND BOARD APPOINTMENTS
GILBERT BAND BOOSTER (GBB)
2015/2016 BOARD POSITIONS
It is time to ask our booster members if they are interested in being on the 2015-2016
GBB Board. There are two boards: EXECUTIVE and ADVISORY.
The Executive Board is made up of five (5) members: President,
Secretary, Treasurer, Drumline Chair, and Guard Chair. The Advisory Board is made up
of fourteen (14) members: President, Secretary, Treasurer, Drumline Chair, Guard
Chair, Socials, Fundraising, Trips & Travel, Volunteer, Equipment, Book-keeper, Uniforms, Public Relations, and Concert Band.
The President, Secretary, and Treasurer are elected by the Advisory Board and must
have previous GBB Board experience. The Drumline Chair and Guard Chair are
appointed by the Band Director, upon recommendation of the current board. The
Advisory Board positions are appointed by the band director, upon recommendation
of the current board.
Although we have previous board members staying, there are several vacancies that
need filled. You may look up the definition of responsibilities for each board member
by going to www.tigerpride.org and clicking on the GBB Standing Rules on the Home
page.
Please contact Karen Ferrin if you have an interest in getting more involved by serving on the board. The new Board will be determined in April, will attend the May
board meeting, and then take over on June 1, 2015.
Please feel free to contact Karen if you have questions.
