New Pioneers had the pleasure of hosting a Holiday Party at the Washington County Public Library this December for our Board of Directors!

This festive meeting helped us welcome four new members to our Board of Directors: Gary Bishop, Jamie Collins, Hortensia Mayer, and Isaac Sutton. We welcome each of you, and are so excited for these new additions!

We also recognized and celebrated the impactful terms of Sr. Susan Gatz, Elizabeth (Lizzy) Coulter, and Cole Alexander, who will be rolling off our Board of Directors. We thank each of you for your support, insight, and enthusiasm while serving. You will be missed!

During this meeting, New Pioneers' staff also presented "A Year in Review" to the Board, exploring the organization's education, demonstration, and advocacy efforts for 2025. We also finalized our 2026 Board Slate and officers, setting us up for a successful and exciting year ahead!

We are so grateful to our Board of Directors for their continuous support in advancing our mission, helping us create a more sustainable future for all! We also thank the Washington County Public Library for the use of their space.
