OldSnareDrummer Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 20 hours ago, Paul Milano said: The transition to a new Executive Director and new Corps Directors (after the 2024 season) has been in the planning stage for two years. It is clearly amicable and well thought out. A tremendous job has been done by both of these fine gentlemen (Monte Mast and Dr. Michael Vaugh). The Board of Directors also just elected new leadership roles, as has been planned for the last several years preparing for succession. They will now get to guide the selection and onboarding of their two new main executive staff members. And, the new ED and corps director will certainly be brought on with ample time to assimilate during the 2024 season so as to know the culture and be prepared for season-ending decision making responsibilities for the 2025 season. Proud to know all of these fine people, including the just exiting board president, Chris Hartowicz, who oversaw and shepherded the organization through some difficult, though publicly quiet challenges, with the help of many excellent partners. This, IMHO (with 40 years of non-profit management, fundraising, and board development professional background) is how transition and excellence can go hand in hand. Thanks to all involved for loving my corps as much as I do. Splooie! I don't know Paul personally, but I certainly know of him having competed against those 70's Cavalier drum lines. We all knew your name. 🙂Our snares even warmed up before shows a couple of times together just to jam. Of course, our 3 snares didn't add much to your 6-8, but it was fun nonetheless to hang out and play. Former MMs from our small corps who went on to the Cavaliers spoke very highly of him and do to this day, his dedication to the corps and the activity itself. Obviously, those tales were true as his long resume' after his marching days would indicate. Chris, also. Congratulations on that career, Paul, both professionally and your tenure with the corps. Your credibility is top drawer with me and anyone ever connected in any way with the Cavaliers. Thanks for chiming in. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
