July 2025 Issue
Letter from the Editor
By Brenda Duke
There’s a lot happening with The Breezes! We’re busy launching our annual North Ender of The Year Award. Nominations are open and you can enter your candidate at North Ender of the Year Nomination Form 2025. We’ve added another category this year, to give you more choices.
We’ll be at the 26th annual Park ‘N Party on July 23rd so stop by and say hello! If you are holding an event and would like us to attend, drop us a line at office@northendbreezes.com
I want to take this opportunity to thank Mariko Bown-Kai for her role as Secretary on the Board of Directors as she steps down to pursue her career opportunities. We will be looking to fill that role. If you have an administrative background, or experience on or working with a Board and have time to attend one meeting per month to take notes, this is an excellent opportunity to join our Board.
As well, Maureen (Moe) Scally assumed the role of Treasurer in an interim position a year ago. We are looking to relieve her of that and fill the position with someone who has basic financial/bookkeeping skills and ideally, knowledge of quicken software.
Please send a resume outlining your skills and experience to office@northendbreezes.com
As always, reach out to me by email or by phone at 289-933-4810 if you have any questions. Thank you.
