Seeking Treasurer for the Board

HELP!!!! The Alumni Association is seeking an alumnus who is willing to take on the treasurer's position and serve on the board. We are looking for a minimum of a two-year commitment. This is one of the critical positions in our Alumni Association. Short of finding a willing volunteer, we may need to paid a bookkeeper or cut back on our planned activities in the near future.

We are looking for individuals who have some business or financial background and know how to use either Quicken or QuickBooks and understand how to produce relatively simple financial reports for the board. This individual will also be responsible for preparing our Form 990 Nonprofit report to the Internal Revenue Service. Our former Treasurer, Alison Sing ’64 is available to train a willing alumnus in how we handle our finances.

If you are interested in serving your alma mater, enjoy being in a responsible position and want to help the Alumni Association build on our successful programs (annual scholarship awards, Memorial Trek activities, golf tournament, and other fundraising activities, etc.) please contact: Peggy J. Soong Yaplee at the CHSAA email posted at the top of this page. Or email her at: jsoong@comcast.net, or give her a call at 206-723-4138.

Please note that the board will interview potential candidates to determine if they possess the necessary background, skill, and experience to fill this position.
