The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce has announced the results of the recent election for eight positions on the Chamber's Board of Directors.
Returning to the Board are Carol Yaholnitsky, Domenic Rampone and Rob Bear. New to the Board are Melissa Honour, Krissy Morrison, Brady Harland, Gord Pritchard and Stephanie Buckle. Each Director will serve a two year term.
Ten people filed their nomination papers says Juanita Polegi, Executive Director of the Chamber. She says she was pleased with the quality of all the candidates.
"Every person who let their name stand would have brought new ideas and enthusiasm for the Chamber to the Table. We encourage the remaining candidates to consider running in future Chamber elections or to sit on one of the Board's committees as the Chamber could benefit greatly from their experience and skills."
An election is held every November to fill half the Board positions.
In order to run for a position on the Board, candidates must be members of the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce or represent businesses which hold membership in the Chamber.
The new members of the Board will take their seat at the Chamber Board table in January at which time the Executive is then elected by the Directors.
Directors serving the second year of their term include Amie Zamonsky, Don Rae, Corey Werner, Cheryl Kustra, Greg Donnelly, Joel Martinuk and Laurie Fedorowich.
