The ASI Nominating Committee is chartered with creating a set of Policies and Procedures that describes and codifies the process of identifying, selecting, and recruiting candidates to serve on our Board of Directors.  What has been an informal process in the past is now being formalized and documented.  The committee is now in the process of reviewing draft language, with the goal of presenting a formal Policy and Procedure chapter to the entire Board of Directors for discussion in June.

Nominating Committee Report
Donna Elder-Holifield, Chair

 

The beginning strategy for our Nominating Committee was to get the word out we were looking for prospective Board Members. We put flyers on tables at luncheons, advertised in the Newsletter, posted on the website and relied on activity leaders to share information about the Board. We were looking for leadership potentials. As a result the Committee is submitting the following slate for election to the Board. Committee members conducted interviews so we could present these short bios.
 

ROBERT MCGREGOR is well known at ASI. He is currently serving as Chief Financial Officer. He also served as president of ASI. His experience will be
invaluable in moving ASI into the future.
 

MIKE BECK is a retired physician’s assistant who has worked on ASI’s food distribution committee. He has also worked as an election official when ASI

serves as a polling place. In addition, Mike has experience serving on the Monterey County Grand Jury.

 

YVONNE MRAULE has had quite a long managerial career working for Disneyland and Kaiser, among other companies. More recently, she has managed her late son’s dental office. She has also provided income tax preparation services for clients. Her current ASI activity is playing bridge.

 

STEVE DOOLITTLE has over 30 years experience in construction management for Universal Studios, Radio City Music Hall, etc. Locally, Steve has managed renovation of the old Porter-Irvine Building, built in l932. Several other Salinas buildings are on that list. He has managerial skills, knows how to
work with others, and gets things done.
 

Thanks to all the Committee members: Sera Hirasuna, Gerry Reynolds, Wayne McDaniels and Robert Pettit for their work. Thanks also to all who gave us ideas and/or considered being a Board Member.

 

The general membership will vote on the slate at
the January luncheon.
