Listing of the 2009 Board of Management
CARHA Hockey recruits qualified individuals to serve on its esteemed Board of Management. As a not-for-profit organization, CARHA Hockey has a well-established Board, which serves to oversee all of the association’s programs and services on a routine basis. The selected candidates are both nominated and elected by the association’s membership base and will remain in their position for a previously established period of time.
The Role of the CARHA Hockey Board of Management:
The particular role of a CARHA Hockey Board of Management member is to voluntarily assist in the fulfillment of the association’s core mission, while respectfully acting as an organizational representative. This includes serving as an ambassador of CARHA Hockey as well as emulating the fundamental values of the organization. For CARHA Hockey and the elected individual to ensure there is a fit, each recruit will begin their stint with the association as a Hockey Advisor and will mentor a current Board of Management member for a period of one year. At the conclusion of this term, the CARHA Hockey President, Board of Management and the said individual will sit and review their tenure to assess their suitability and interest.
