2012 Slate of Board Candidates Recommended by Trustees

Each year three trustees complete their term of service and three new trustees are voted onto the board. A nomination commit­tee convenes to search out qualified candi­dates and to provide a recommended slate to be voted on at our Annual Membership Gath­ering in March. This year we will be voting on four new trustees so we can also fill a vacant position on the board.

We thank the nominating committee com­prised of Linda Thomason, D.A. Warren, Carol Shields, Ed Storck, and Sherrie Corbett, RScP.

We also thank our outgoing trustees for their exemplary service at a time unparalleled in the history of the Center: Reed Dickinson, Ken McCauley, and John Brown.

Here, for your review, are the four candi­dates for 2012. Pictured clockwise from upper left: Jeff Basham, Fran Bolduc, Teresa Franklin, and Janet DePree.

Santa Rosa native Jeff Basham graduated from Piner High School. At Santa Rosa Junior College he earned his Emergency Medical Technician certificate and an AA Degree in So­cial and Behavioral Sci­ences. Jeff has an ex­treme love of perfor­mance arts and theatre—both community and professional. He has been a backstage assistant and stage manager for local theater companies and was backstage technician for Norwegian Cruise Lines in 2007. Presently he is employed at Santa Rosa J.C. as Help Desk Technician in the Information Technology Department. Jeff discovered the Center in October 2008 and is currently completing prerequisite classes to enter Advanced Consciousness Studies.

Maggie completed her first CD, “Heart of the Matter,” with inspirational prayers and meditations. Enthusiasm for God and genuine love for Science of Mind are what she brings to her work.

Testimonial
I'm a singer and until I met Maggie I was dealing with not knowing and accepting the gift that I was given. Maggie saw past my walls of resistance. In prayer, I was guided through the biggest transformation of my life. Maggie's heart is as open as a child's. She is present, willing, and giving of her wisdom, heart, and intuitiveness. She gave me an experience of God and brought joy into my life. Being with Maggie is easy and comforting. She is a modern day mystic. I feel blessed to be with her on this sacred journey called life. —RH
 
Maggie is available to see clients and her fee is $65 per session. Call 527-0992 or for more information about Maggie, please go to her website www.maggiec.com.
