    Virginia Master Gardener Association R E P O R T Vol. 17, No. 5 http://www.vmga.net September/October 2010 VMGA Executive Board President’s Message PRESIDENT Bill Scott, VMGA President Bill Scott 703-791-2646 The October Board meeting will be on October 9th in VICE-PRESIDENT Galax. The meetings are open to all of the membership and Christy Brennan 804-741-0801 are rotated around the state during each fiscal year. I PAST PRESIDENT encourage as many of the members who can to attend these Betty Villers 757-481-6398 meetings and to participate in them if you have input or TREASURER questions for the Board of Directors. As I have previously said, I am confident that as an Jim Kincaid 757-467-6782 organization we can successfully meet the challenges facing SECRETARY VMGA and move the organization forward. However to do Peggy Fox 757-930-2174 that, we must fill the critical volunteer positions that are currently open. We still need a Membership Committee Chair VMGA Committee Chairs and a Coordinator of Fundraising Item Sales. Without a Coordinator, we won’t have the sales, which generated COMMUNICATIONS/UNIT SUPPORT $3,000.00 for the State Coordinator Endowment last year. Frank Reilly 540-286-0072 Volunteering not only gives you an opportunity to support MEMBERSHIP the VMGA directly, but also lets you meet and develop Mary Ann Kincaid 757-467-6782 friendships with a dedicated group of volunteers who are EDUCATION supportive and helpful when you need any assistance. Please Barbara Geer 804-861-8055 consider volunteering your time to a very worthwhile cause.
