Member Volunteers
OGC could not function with out the involvement of its members. We encourage each member to consider how you can help. If you wish to start a new program, organize a social activity, or run for a board position, we encourage all full privilege members to get involved.
Anytime, members can contact the board and make suggestions. Board member nominations are welcome between July 1 and August 31. New Board Members are elected each year during the end-of-season open board meeting.
