[CMUBDC] Ballroom Dance Club - Week of April 15th, 2024

[CMU Ballroom Dance Club]

Hello Ballroom Friends,

It’s officer election season!! We have a short turn-around this year so
please read this email ASAP and run for office!

News

Officer Elections:

CMU Ballroom is a student run organization, which means we need students
(like you!) to keep this club running.

Why should you run? Besides it being a great way to give back to our
amazing club or make the changes you want to see, working on board is an
excellent resumé builder to demonstrate teamwork, leadership, and
organizational skills. Oh, and we pay you back in the form of free lessons
for the year.

Sign-up by TOMORROW, Tuesday the 16th with this form
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe1Xuht_0vVsjgohFn8pv5owsTHh4-djtUMVb_KEODq1D5xRg/viewform>.
Elections will be held Wednesday, the 17th in Studio Theater.
