OGBC

Letter to Membership



Dear OGBC members,

I hope this message finds you and your families doing well. I wanted to take this opportunity to share with you our current status as an organization and our thoughts moving forward regarding dues, annual meetings and board positions.

At this point in time, with the gym not fully operational, we have decided that we will not charge any new dues for the 2020/2021 competitive season until the need arises. Therefore, we have decided to put a hold on any new business.

Typically, at this point in the year, we would put out a request for people interested in running for open positions on the board. We have had several members leave their positions prior to the end of their term as the boys' program experienced changes. Currently, we have five active members: Mary Shelton, Dave Cafagna, Mike Ratusznik, Chad Gregory and myself. Brenda Golembieski is completing her term but will not return for another season. We are grateful for her many years of service and wish her the best of luck.

We have decided not to actively fill any positions until we have a better idea of what a competitive season will look like. However, in the event we do need to fill the positions we have provided a list of open positions with a brief description of responsibilities below. We are hoping that when the time comes to fill these positions we will have interested members. If you have any questions regarding any of these positions please feel free to get in touch with me directly.

We have also made the decision to postpone the annual membership meeting that was tentatively scheduled for August 2, 2020.

Our financial situation is stable and we are in a good position to support any start-up costs associated with a competitive season. However, depending on how that competitive season is organized would determine the amount of dues necessary to support any additional costs. Please be assured that we will keep you informed and provide as much advance notice of any fees or dues schedules that may be needed.

We will continue to support competitive gymnastics at Olympia Gymnastics Academy so that our athletes have an opportunity to be successful at all levels.

If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reach out to Vince Gigliotti at 248-302-5720 or at Vincenzo.Gigliotti@berkleyschools.org.
