In-Person STEM Annual Meeting and
​Archeology Presentation on April 19
Join STEM for our annual meeting, including a presentation, “A Prehistoric Survery of Moorestown in 30 Minutes” by local archeologist Jack Cresson.

Save the Environment of Moorestown’s (STEM) annual meeting is scheduled for April 19 in the Club Room at the Moorestown Community House. The meeting will start at 7 pm.

The meeting will include a brief review of STEM’s activities in 2021, by Mark Pensiero, the current President of STEM. Chet Dawson, STEM’s Treasurer will review STEM’s financial position and some proposed changes to our By Laws. After these presentations, STEM members will vote on our slate of the nominees for our officers and board members and the By Law changes.

The proposed slate for officers and board positions are as follows.

Officers
Mark Pensiero, President
Kathy Huffman, Vice-President
Chet Dawson, Treasurer
Colleen Malloy Lopresti, Secretary

Board Members
Claire Adair
Sue Buffalino
Betsy Schnoor
Nancy Clem
Elaine Young
Harry Mayer
Joan Ponessa
Katie Leakley

Following the business portion of the meeting, Jack Cresson, local archeologist (and STEM member) will present “A Prehistoric Survey of Moorestown in 30 Minutes”. Knowing Jack’s incredible knowledge of Moorestown’s prehistoric sites, I have no doubt that it will be a fascinating presentation.

It has been two years since we’ve had our annual meeting “in person” and we look forward to seeing many of our members at the meeting. Please feel free to invite friends as the meeting is open to the public.
​
Regards,
Mark Pensiero
President, STEM
Summary of proposed changes to the Save the Environment of Moorestown By-Laws: 

1. STEM: Steering Committee was changed to the STEM Board to better reflect the importance of this group.

2. Article III Section 3 now states that members who have paid their dues in the current or prior calendar years can vote instead of just prior fiscal year. Many people now pay their dues prior to the start of a fiscal year which might preclude them from voting the following year and this remedies that.

3. Article IV Section 2 states that dues are due by June 30 for the fiscal year beginning April 1. We have always accepted dues paid after that date and it also does not take into effect new members that join later in the year. This has now been changed to the end of calendar year.

4. Article V Section 1: To allow for the opportunity to bring new ideas and energy to the STEM Board the number of Board members has been increased from 11 to 15. This would also increase the number of Directors from 8 to 11. the number of Officers stays at 4.

5. Article V Section 2: Rather than have the Nominating Committee elected by the membership this changes that to appointed by the Board.

6. Article V Section 4: In keeping with 4 above it changes elected to be announced for the Nominating Committee.
