WHCA Elects New Executive Board 2011

New Officers Elected

The new Executive Board was elected at our monthly meeting on October 6, 2011 as directed by our bylaws. The new officers are

President, Paul Scanlon
Vice President, Barth McNeil
Secretary, Cathy Granoth
Treasurer, Charles Williams

Congratulations to all of our new officers. We still have to vote on one board position at our next regular monthly meeting which will be held on November 3rd, 2011, the first Thursday of the month. Board member Rosemary O’Brien’s term is up. She has expressed an interest in continuing for another term, but if you or someone you know are interested in being on the WHCA Board, come to the meeting and nominate them.

NaNoWriMo Begins!

On another note, National Novel Writing Month has begun again! Best of luck to all of the crazy NaNoWriMos who will attempt to write 50,000 by the stroke of midnight on November 30th. The WHCA will not be holding our NaNoWriMo Write-In this year, but feel free to sign up for write-ins, area meet-ups and word races through the official website. Go to http://www.nanowrimo.org/ for more info or to participate. We plan on participating next year, so join us then! (This will just be your warm up.)
