CAM has welcomed six new members to its board of directors as the organization continues to develop plans for a future facility while protecting its collection and preparing to launch a $20 million capital campaign for sustained operations in a permanent home.
The new board members are Marc Oken and Hugh McColl, both of Falfurrias Capital Partners, George Edmiston of Carolinas Investment Consulting LLC, Tim Miller of Barringer Construction, Pat Rainey of Jones Lang LaSalle, and Scott Mickle of Red Ventures. Oken will serve as the museum’s board chair. The six join existing museum board members Greg Boulanger of HNTB (previous board chair), Brian Siegel of Bank of America, Jay Potter of Central Piedmont Community College (retired), Gene Carney of Charlotte Douglas International Airport (retired), and Joe Valasquez of DroneScape PLLC.
“We are proud of the museum’s years of accomplishments and commitment to preserving aviation’s history in the Carolinas,” said Marc Oken. “We look forward to continued momentum for the next phase of this vital organization as we serve the community and build a permanent home for the museum in Charlotte.”
