President’s Message – March 8, 2023
Hello Members and Friends, I am so happy our first Members Conference was a success! We received some great feedback and so many members are ready to volunteer to help around the club! We thank you for your enthusiasm, it’s what is going to take this club to the places we always imagined it could go.
Some of the changes we will be looking at is navigating new guests and members so that we are making sure members who welcome newcomers are doing so because they want to. Eva has been doing a great job with our garden in the last year and she is looking for more hands to help. We briefly discussed creating a yard committee to help with the garden as well as the fire pits. We will also find ways to communicate things that are happing around the club that other members are doing.
We do like feedback and we want to remind our new members that we want to be a space where you can relax from all of the other things you have going on in your life. We will do our best not to ask too much from our members. I personally know how it feels to have an interest in something and throw myself so deeply in that it no longer feels fun. It is very important to us that we work in balance because after all we all just want a space where we can sit near each other and have a good meal.
If you missed our member conference there will be a Facebook Live event tonight at 6pm (3/8/23) in our member’s group. The video will be available afterward and questions and comments can be directed to me via email president@cpcbalt.com
I hope you are as excited as I am for the 2023 season at the club! See you in the yard!
