I was somewhat hesitant.
Maine is large geographically but small population-wise.
The Yale Club of Western Maine counts eight hundred alumni in our database, but a minority are actually dues-paying members, something we are working on. Compared to some of the behemoths, including two clubs I previously belonged to, ours is a relatively small operation. Nonetheless, we are pleased with what we see, but we certainly have a long way to go. Today we have a 15-person board of directors, fairly well diversified by age, plus three officers and committee chairs. Our ASC has long been strong and active.
