An Update with CRCII - August 2012

We would like to announce the addition of new board members for the Carpet and Rug Cleaners of Illinois. Due to the restructuring of the organization, we requested members to step forward to help us with our plans to serve the cleaners of Illinois. The new board members are Mike Vincent, Wilbur Gage, Wayne Binder, Mike McNett, Tony Chakeen and TJ Farrell.

At our May 22 board meeting, the nominating, marketing, by-laws and meeting committees were discussed and members were assigned to these committees. In regards to the nominating committee, the slate of officers and board will be presented at the August meeting and the election will be held in October.
