Action Items
New Business
New Board Member Interest - Sarah R. (5 mins)
- Introduction of Bike Edmonton volunteer Michelle Bourdon
I began volunteering with BE in Summer 2019, after several years of following and taking interest in the organization. An avid recreational cyclist myself, I use my bike in the summer to commute to the hospital where I work as a Registered Nurse. An advocate for safety, community outreach, and promotion of preventative health, I see organizations such as Bike Edmonton as amazing support resources with similar goals in mind - and much more! Although I do not have any formal experience on Not for Profit boards, I attend my condo AGM regularly, I sit as an executive member on my unions Local board, and I sit on several boards as a Clinical Nurse Educator for joint workplace decision making.
- Thank you to both Molly and Chris for engaging with Michelle and encouraging her to join the Bike Edmonton Board!
To appoint Michelle Bourdon to the 2021 Bike Edmonton Board of Directors effective immediately. | ||
