Ottawa, Ontario—Following recent resignations, Dressage Canada is pleased to announce that Nancy MacLachlan of Terra Cotta, ON, and Karen Thompson-Harry of Acton, ON, have been appointed to the Dressage Canada Board (DCB) to fill the vacancies left behind by the departure of previous Board members, Kerri McGregor and Claire Milton.
Joining current board members Sue Rothgeb, Elizabeth McMullen, Annaliese Farber, Lisa Hossack-Scott and Kim Goodyear, MacLachlan and Thompson-Harry will take office effective immediately and serve until the new Board takes office in January 2010.
“Because of personal and professional commitments, the Dressage Canada Board has recently lost two of its members, and the board has appointed Nancy MacLachlan and Karen Thompson-Harry to fill the vacancies,” said DCB Chair, Sue Rothgeb. “We are pleased that Nancy and Karen will be joining us, and we feel that they will make important contributions to our work for the reminder of this year.”
The Dressage Canada Board (DCB) develops and manages its programs through a number of technical committees. The objectives of Dressage Canada are to foster the growth of dressage and the pursuit of excellence in the sport at the local, national and international levels. The DCB consists of seven elected members, six directors-at-large elected from the senior affiliates of Dressage Canada and one athlete representative elected by their peers through the Dressage Canada Athletes’ Council.
