Event Description:


Happy New Year! As we kick off 2026, we’re trying something new for our January networking event. Instead of our traditional networking lunch, we invite you to join us for a Networking & Coffee gathering—an easy, relaxed way to connect with fellow members and start the year together.

Board Business
At this Networking & Coffee, we will be formally approving the 2026 slate of Board Members. This step was not completed at our Annual General Meeting and needs to be finalized in accordance with our bylaws.

Members interested in joining the Board are encouraged to reach out no later than Wednesday, January 14th.

For members unable to attend the Networking & Coffee, an email will be sent on Thursday, January 15th allowing all members the opportunity to approve or deny the proposed slate.

Proposed 2026 Board Slate:

  • Dianne Marrs-Smith – WCLS & Friends of Birch Bay Library

  • Linda Gallé Parent – Community Member

  • Molly Ernst – The Northern Light

  • Doralee Booth – Friends of Birch Bay State Park

  • Dan McEvory – North Bay Community Church
