LNSRC Board because... |
|
Answer:
I would like to represent the membership on the
LNSRC Board because it has been my pleasure to serve
these last two years. The board has accomplished
many things during this term; successful amendment
and revision of the Bylaws, renovation and
improvements to the clubhouse bathrooms and
kitchen/snack bar. There are still things that need
to be done; renovation of courts 6, 7, 8 and proper
shade on the pool deck. I would like to participate
with the board in seeing this work to its end.

Responses from Secretary
Candidate - Pam Fierro |
|
Question:
I would like to represent the membership on the
LNSRC Board because... |
|
Answer: Over the years, the club has meant so much
to my family. From the first month we moved to
Little Neck in 2001, it became the focal point of
our summer entertainment. We've participated in the
club activities on many levels: social events,
fitness classes, tennis, swim team, youth nights. I
want to give back to the organization by serving on
the board. I want to ensure that the club remains a
vital force in this community and that it continues
to offer the same kind of opportunities to families
in the future. |

Things that I have done in my personal or
professional background that make me a
strong candidate include... |
|
Answer: I am primarily a stay-at-home mom to two
very busy daughters, but I am also a writer and an
editor. I've written four books and have been the
Guide to Twins & Multiples at About.com (a New York
Times company) since 2001. In addition, I have
served in a volunteer capacity throughout the
community. I chaired the Welcome Tea at Kingston
Elementary School and was a regular volunteer at the
school. I was the editor of the Blues News
newsletter for the Lynnhaven Middle School PTA and
am now the chair of the newsletter committee at
First Colonial High School. I was on the board of
the Middle Plantation Women's Club for many years
and continue to coordinate the neighborhood book
club. I am also an active member of Lynnhaven United
Methodist Church where I have been involved in
numerous ways. I have experience working with a
group of people as well as the organizational and
writing skills to serve as secretary. |

Question:
I think LNSRC is important to the community
because... |
|
Answer: The Swim & Racquet club facility has so much
to offer the community. It functions as a social
hub, a place for fitness and exercise, a gathering
place for parties and special events, a venue for
competitive sports and more. It keeps our children
engaged in activities and gives adults a social and
fitness connection to their neighbors. It is a place
where memories are made and friendships are formed.
From the toddlers who share their toys in the splash
pool to the high school seniors who celebrate
graduation with a party in the clubhouse, Little
Neck families mark many milestones at the Swim Club. |

Responses from At-Large
Director Candidate - Michael Komives |
|
Question:
I would like to represent the membership on the
LNSRC Board because... |
|
Answer:
I have thought about joining the committee for
several years. I believe it's the best way for me
and my family to give back to a community that does
so much for so many people. |

Question:
Things that I have done in my personal or
professional background that make me a
strong candidate include... |
Answer: I have been in the automobile business
for over 20 years, most of it as a general
manager, which I believe gives me a strong
understanding of how to manage any size company
and how vitally important customer service is.
In business, as you all well know, if the
customers (members) don't feel that the business
is acting in their best interest, then they
won't be customers for long. Along with
managing customer service, I am very involved
with expense structure, cost analysis, and
project management, all of which plays an
important roll in running the LNSRC.

Question:
I think LNSRC is important to the community
because... |
|
Answer:
It's not only a place for children to gather, but
for a whole community to get together in a wonderful
facility to enjoy a multitude of activities. Our
family enjoys the friendships and fellowships we
have made since joining LNSRC. As a board member, I
will endeavor to support LNSRC's commitment to our
Little Neck community. |
