A plea for more volunteers to help with the iconic Lakeside School for the Deaf apparently reached the right people. Vice President Cece Girling, who was doing double duty and keeping the project going with a skeleton crew, was delighted with the results of the story. “We had an overflowing crowd of people at our Annual General Meeting on February 16,” she said. “More, I’m told, than we have had in many years.
Volunteers stepped up to fill the gaps in the board of directors, creating a strong board with Fernando Gomez as president, Cece Giring, vice president in charge of fundraising, Terry Crowder as treasurer, Audrey Clark, publicity chairperson and Mary Ellen McCann as recording secretary. Also stepping up to the plate is Steve Cross, who will assist Girling with fundraising.
