Listen to what this year’s board members shared about their
experience.
“It can give
you work experience, help you meet like-minded parents, and it’s an opportunity
to improve/hone certain skills you’d like to use.” Resa, Class Coordinator
“I volunteered to be on the board to help and to feel closer to the
community.” Darcy, Registrar
“I wanted a
scheduled event that got me out of the house childless. I also wanted to
use part of my brain that doesn’t get exercised as a SAHM. I enjoyed completing my tasks and
responsibilities and feeling a sense of accomplishment” Krista, Secretary
“Serving on the
board is great because you get to play a key role in WTG- which benefits your
kid! Furthermore, it is a great personal growth opportunity for you! I love interacting with parents (and
teachers) that aren’t in my class. It’s great showing up to a WTG event
and being able to facilitate parents from other classes meeting each other.” Sonja, Class Coordinator
“I earned my bachelor’s
degree when I was pregnant with my daughter, so serving on the board was an
opportunity to use what I learned. Also being a part of the board is an
experience I can use on my resume. Finally, I wanted to give back to
Woodinville Toddler Group since they are about serving the community, parents,
and our children.” Brenda, Treasurer
I'm volunteering as a class coordinator because I was so impressed
with WTG during the 2012-2013 school year. We had an absolutely awesome class,
and I know our class coordinator had a lot to do with that. Volunteering as a
class coordinator gives me the opportunity to put my professional skills to use
in a program that means a lot to my family. It's a great blend of both of my
worlds” Hillary, Class Coordinator
“It’s a great
opportunity to dust off skills that you maybe haven’t utilized since leaving
the working world. It was refreshing to collaborate with other adults to
work on projects and complete. It felt
great to be needed outside the home :).” Lisa, Webmaster
“I truly
enjoyed meeting the other parent board members- they are all such great
people” Resa, Class Coordinator
