Message from the President, April 2021

GBA Members,

We’ve finally made it to spring! I hope that the month of March has brought you sunshine and maybe even a dose (or two) of the COVID vaccine.

This past month, we hosted another social opportunity with NailedIt DYI. We painted signs for our homes and connected with each other over a fun craft. Thank you to those of you who participated.

At our membership meeting, we hosted Andrea Harrell and Sergeant Ryan Todd from the Greensboro Police Department.  They shared the Department’s diversity hiring initiatives and discussed the recruitment process for new police officers. Our Nominating Committee also announced our slate for the next cycle of GBA leadership as follows:

GBA President Elect (24th JD VP): Judge Marcus A. Shields

GBA/24th JD Secretary: Molly A. Hilburn-Holte

GBA/24th JD Treasurer: Davis McDonald

Directors: Judge K. Michelle Fletcher, Manisha P. Patel, L. Nicole Patino, and Jennifer Gibert Mencarini

We are grateful for these devoted GBA leaders and are excited to see what the future of our organization has in store under their leadership.

In April, we will welcome the Guilford Education Alliance as our featured speaker at our membership meeting.  We hope to see you there! Stay safe everyone.

Lisa Arthur
