Call Out For Great Falls Citizens Association Board Candidates

An Open Letter to GFCA Members and Great Falls Community Resident

I am pleased to announce that the Great Falls Citizens Association (GFCA) is actively seeking candidates to serve on its Executive Board. We have a number of current vacancies for Directors and for candidates for the upcoming election. Our annual election is typically held on the second Tuesday in June, subject to confirmation by our Board. GFCA Directors serve a two year term beginning July 1.

The GFCA Executive Board serves a critically important role in the community by advocating for the preservation and enhancement of all aspects of community interest accruing to a common good, as well as the historic, low density, semi-rural character of Great Falls and its natural resources.

The Executive Board plays a key role in governing and managing the business of the organization. These positions require residency in Great Falls, current membership in the GFCA, and a commitment and willingness to attend monthly meetings and participate in committee activities and events throughout their term.

The GFCA is a non-partisan, non-profit, tax-exempt community organization recognized under 501(c)(4) of the IRS Code with the purpose to promote “the common good and general welfare of the community.” GFCA has been advocating on behalf of our membership and the citizens of Great Falls since 1968.

Our work is supported by volunteer members who participate in our standing Committees that address Environment & Parks, Transportation, Land Use & Zoning, Membership, and Communications. Two other Special Committees address Schools and Legislation. However there are many other issues that are crosscutting or fall outside of those categories. Because of that, GFCA must be agile and keenly aware of current events.

If you are interested and you meet the qualifications described above, please return a completed application to GFCA’s Nominating Committee. Please email it to: Nominations@GFCA.org. The deadline for submission of applications is Monday, March 24 at 5:00 p.m. for our upcoming June election.

We look forward to hearing from you! Thank you.

Regards,

John Halacy, President
