We (the Board and I) are looking for one or two individuals who are willing to take over the role of Treasurer for the Association. I have been acting Treasurer for the past year and a half and I will continue in this position for t he foreseeable future; but, we need to create some depth in this job in case I can suddenly no longer serve. The work of the Treasurer is vitally important to the functioning of our organization and continuity of this position must be maintained.

The demands on the Treasurer are minimal for the most part; however, a few days of the month may require more than a few minutes. For those who have a talent for organization, the processes and procedures will be easy enough to learn and should not tax your time too heavily.

As interim Treasurer, I will teach you everything you need to know to do the job. You will need basic computer skills–a computer will be provided to you for your tasks. You do not need to know accounting principles, although you will certainly learn some accounting along the way. You will need a printer to print checks and you will need to be physically able to retrieve mail from our neighborhood mailbox. You will also need to be able to make deposits at our local bank. I will initially help you with all these activities until you are comfortable doing them.

I will remain as Treasurer for some time; your training will prepare you to take over the role at such time that I am no longer able to fulfill it. Thank you for your consideration.

M Marshall
