After the Elections:Committee Chairs are NOT elected but are appointed by the President after the elections. We have had great Chairs and committee members and Oyster Harbor reflects their efforts. We hope that the present Chairs and committee members will continue or that many of you will choose to Chair a committee or join a committee where vacancies need to be filled.
