Board Member Titles Updated to Reflect FWM Bylaws
Far West Masters has updated the titles of its board members to align with the organization's official bylaws. The changes bring consistency between the titles used on the website and in communications and the roles as defined in FWM's governing documents.
The most notable change is that the President title has been updated to Chairman, and most board members who previously held descriptive role titles now carry the designation of Vice Chair with their area of responsibility. For example, the Membership role is now Vice Chair of Membership, Communications is now Vice Chair of Communications, and so on.
Here is a summary of the updated titles:
| Board Member | Previous Title | Updated Title |
|---|---|---|
| Rees Palermo | President | Chairman |
| Mary Feddis | Membership | Vice Chair of Membership |
| Melissa House | Communications | Vice Chair of Communications |
| Damian Palfini | Recruiting | Vice Chair of Recruitment and Marketing |
| Hamish Butler | Treasurer | Treasurer |
| Linda Crowell | Secretary | Secretary |
| Mike Braun | Race Scheduling | Vice Chair of Race Scheduling |
| Mark Mirviss | Officials | Vice Chair of Officials |
| Deb Lewis | Chief Technical Officer | Vice Chair of Information and Technology |
| Ray Tulloch | Past President | Past President |
The Treasurer, Secretary, and Past President titles remain unchanged.
These updates are part of an ongoing effort to ensure that FWM's operations and communications accurately reflect the structure outlined in the bylaws. You'll see the new titles reflected on the Contacts page and in future FWM communications.
