Happy Thanksgiving Week, FCRPCV's
This month, even in the middle of a pandemic we are reminded to give thanks and appreciation for our friends, family and other special folks in our lives and their most memorable happenings.
Two weeks ago we had our Annual General Meeting (AGM) and it was our very first virtual AGM. We Zoom'ed and had 35 attendees! Thank you to all who attended! If you were not able to attend; Here is a quick recap. We heard from four wonderful speakers, Chris Lins, Maricarmen Smith-Martinez, Tom Potter, and Michael Booker who all shared their unique perspective on Peace Corps What's Next Globally and Locally. We also voted unanimously to approve the amended BY-Laws, CLICK
The 2021 Board of Directors were unanimously approved. CLICK to see who we are. Hover over their photos to see a photo of each as a PCV.
Every year the FCRPCV President, (me this year), prepares an Annual report. I used the ZOOM presentation, which I shared during the meeting, to accomplish this task. Our 2020 Annual Report is available for you to download here.
Since the AGM the FCRPCV Board of Directors was very grateful to be able to vote in one more member to our Board, Tom Potter! Tom is no stranger to FCRPCV and has been the National Peace Corps Association's elected Southern Region representative for over three years now. We are very excited to welcome Tom Potter to the FCRPCV Board of Directors.
Finally, I would l ike to thank everyone who came out to on November 12th to the German Schnitzel House in Harbour Village Shopping Center for a socially distanced get together to pick up your swag AND to everyone who has or in the process of delivering swag to our members. We truly are a wonderful group because of our members! Thank YOU!
