Finally completed the VP part. Sorry for the delay.

Basically, the VP secures the insurance for our events and calculates club votes for the committee meetings.
I consider myself impartial when it comes to club politics, I think it's important that the person that fills the position is similarly agnostic.

I nominate Dennis Hubbard for the position of Treasurer. I'll let Dennis chime in on this thread but I've discussed this with Anthony, who is the current Treasurer, and he endorses Dennis for the position as well. If you don't know Dennis, he competes in ES with me in his NB miata. He moved to the region in 2017 and attended every local event since. We went to the nationals in 2017 and 2018 together and it was both our first time. I can vouch for him with my reputation.

Looking forward to the call tomorrow.

Ed, thank you for the nomination for the role of Treasurer. I have expressed interest in this position as a way to contribute and give back to the club while also applying my background in a meaningful way.

I am still relatively new to Cal Club, so a little bit of background for those of you that I have not formally met. I began autocrossing with the San Francisco region about 3 years ago and moved to Southern California in the middle of 2017. Since moving to the area, I have attended most of the regional events and appreciate how I have been welcomed with open arms since the beginning. Over the last 1 ½ years, I have enjoyed my time driving but I have had an increasing desire to do more than just drive and go home. I have seen how much work it takes to run the club and events and have been looking for the right opportunity to actively contribute.

I chose to run for the Treasurer position not only because it is a role that I feel I am qualified for based on my professional experience as regional CFO for a Fortune 500 company, but more importantly because of its importance to the club. I am confident that I will be able to provide sound financial guidance and also work with the Board to set longer term goals for the region that will help move us in a direction that will drive our success.

Thank you for your consideration!
