Board Elections

The Westgate Cabana Club is managed and run by a group of dedicated volunteers. There are eight distinct positions on the Board of Directors (“Board”). Each September, members elect nominees to these Board positions to serve for the subsequent Club season. Elected Board members serve a term of one year, and may serve up to three years consecutively on the Board. The Board may appoint unfilled Board positions and Committee members as needed to support management of the Club.

In exchange for their service, Board and Committee members receive a free membership and a discount on swim lessons, parties, and guest pass punch cards. The transition from the previous Board to the new Board occurs at the General Meeting of the Membership in September.

Serving on the Board is an opportunity to be more involved in the pool community while working with fellow members who are committed to making the Westgate Cabana Club the best it can be. It is also a great place to learn and apply new skills and provide leadership and mentoring to youth (lifeguards, swim instructors and interns). 

If you are interested in joining the Board for the upcoming pool season, then please submit a Nomination Form. Please see the list of open Board of Directors positions and roles and responsibilities. If you have any questions about nominations or the election, please contact us.
