Board members:

Len Komanac
David Smith
Petra Mala
Katherine Bourke

One of the most exciting things going on this year is the start of committees to help with marketing, fundraising, membership and buttons. If you’ve always wanted to be involved, but not at a board level, this is a wonderful opportunity to use your skills and help trap\door with it’s various operations. Contact us to find out more!
