Have you ever thought about getting more involved with the Rug Hooking Guild of Nova Scotia? Now is a great time to step forward!

As we are preparing for our Annual General Meeting in October, we’re looking for members to fill several Board of Directors positions:

Vice President • Archives • Membership • Fairs & Exhibitions • Website • Regional Directors 

Being a Regional Director is a wonderful opportunity to connect with rug hookers in your community, meet fellow members across the Maritimes and beyond; and help strengthen awareness of the Rug Hooking Guild of Nova Scotia and its work.  A Regional Director is chosen within the region – contact your Regional Director to find out more.  You can find the Regional Directors at his webpage: https://rhgns.com/about-rhgns/our-people/.

Why You? Why Now?

You don’t need to have all the answers. What you bring—your ideas, experience, enthusiasm, and love of rug hooking—can make a difference.

Serving on the Guild is a wonderful opportunity to:

  • Meet fellow rug hookers
  • Share your ideas and talents
  • Help shape the future of the Guild
  • Strengthen our vibrant rug hooking community

From our Past President, Linda Alderdice, “From my own personal experience serving on this Board in various positions over the past 12+ years, it has been one of the most rewarding parts of my rug hooking journey. Through this work, I have met countless talented, generous, and supportive people who share not only a passion for rug hooking, but also a genuine spirit of friendship and community.”

Could this be your opportunity to get involved?

Consider putting your name forward—or nominating someone (with their permission) who would be a great addition to the team.  Nominations will be accepted before the Annual General Meeting or on the floor during the meeting.

We highly recommend reviewing the position guidelines available at https://rhgns.com/rhgns-positions-and-committee-guidelines/.
