WSSA’s Board meets at least quarterly in the course of a guild year (September to August). All officers are elected at the annual meeting of the Members in June (our June Potluck and Business meeting).
Our guild operates solely on volunteer time and effort and there are a lot of moving parts. If you would like to serve, please contact us, even if there isn’t a named position “open” and listed here. If you have skills you think would be of benefit, please let us know!
