Tamera Oxley was suggested to fill the remaining term of Audra Marotta who resigned (because she took a job out-of-state). Jae Furman was suggested to fill the remaining term of Rachel Lillis who resigned (because of her work schedule). Audra Marotta would like to come back on the board (she's now working in state), taking the place of Alice Levinson who resigned (her current term expired on March 31, 2010). I think these are the ones you knew about. In addition, Wendy Gellert has also resigned (due to health issues). I will forward to you her resignation email. Other folks with expired terms (expired March 31, 2010)are Gordon Jameson, Mary Harley Kruter, and Bronwyn Merritt. Do you want me to ask them if they would like to be reappointed for another term?
