Welcoming Director Nominations for August 2025
Happy (Almost) Summer, Stony Lakers!
While summer felt a little late arriving this year, we're nearly there! As always, your SLYC Board and sub-committees have been busy planning a fun, active, and enriching season for the whole family. A big thank-you to everyone who’s been working hard over the winter to help make life on Juniper happen!
As I mentioned at last year’s SLYC Dinner Dance, the club is run entirely by volunteers; people who generously give their time to help us maintain beloved traditions while continuing to grow with our ever-evolving community. To keep SLYC thriving, we rely on all members to contribute in ways that make sense for them and their families. If you're someone who arrives in late June and enjoys a clinic, free play tennis, or drops your kids at sailing, we encourage you to think about how you might contribute in the future. The club truly needs you, and volunteering is also a meaningful and rewarding way to connect with others who love SLYC and the lake just as much as you do.
For those unfamiliar with the process: the SLYC Board is composed of up to sixteen Directors, each serving a two-year term. Each year, the Nominating Committee recommends a slate of Directors to the Board. That slate is proposed at the AGM in August, where club members vote to approve it. You’re welcome to nominate yourself or someone else. More often than not the Nominating Committee seeks out volunteers who may be willing to serve on the Board.
Below is a list of Director positions with terms ending at this year’s AGM and the next. If you’re interested in any of these roles, or just want to chat about how to get more involved, please reach out to a current Director or any member of the Nominating Committee listed below.
