Our VP Peggy is taking a leave of absence from her role on the NJMQG executive board. According to our bylaws, the executive board may appoint an Acting VP to carry out the responsibilities necessary.

The board is seeking self-nomination of members interested in serving the guild as Acting VP. The main responsibility is creating and maintaining the guild’s calendar and lists of events and enforcing deadlines we may come upon (challenges, filing paperwork, etc.). The Acting VP will need to attend executive board meetings, usually held the week before a guild meeting, and may fill in for the President as necessary. He or she should be familiar with or open to learning online organizational and networking tools (Google docs, Facebook, WordPress).

Above all, we’re looking for someone who will help us pass along the guild spirit of inclusion, positivity, creativity and community.

If you might be interested (this sounds far more serious than it is– we have lots of fun!) please email your nomination to njmqginfo@gmail.com.

EDITED TO ADD: Thank you to the people who have stepped forward– the guild is considering our needs and the strengths of those who have volunteered, and we’ll update the guild as soon as we can.
