2020 Officers
December 2019
by John Rich
The HCC elections were held at the November 13th general membership meeting.

The nominating committee to seek out candidates was headed by Bruce Bodson, along with Tom Douglas, Alice Nissen and Amy McGee.

Bruce Bodson announced the known slate of candidates, and called for any further nominations from the floor - none were forthcoming. A member head count was taken to ensure a quorum was present, and it was. Then the vote was taken by voice. All of the candidates, who ran unopposed, were elected by unanimous "Ayes", and will serve a one-year term commencing January 1st, 2020.

Four Board Members will change this year; Natalie Wiest switches from Fleet Captain to replace Bob Naeger as Commodore, Christy Long replaces Dan Roy as Vice Commodore, Bruce Bodson replaces Natalie Wiest as Fleet Captain, and Alice Nissen replaces Paul Woodcock as Boatswain. The remaining three officers remain the same.
