Treasurer

The Treasurer's primary responsibilities are to collect class dues (either annually or in the year preceding a Reunion) that are used to fund specific class projects and to maintain the class bank account.

Responsibilities

1. Provide active support to all other class officers as they assume their volunteer responsibilities. This includes, but is not limited to, contributing information for Class Notes, attending class gatherings, and making a gift to Wheaton through the Annual Fund.

2. Collect dues annually, or at a time agreed upon by the members of the class.

3. The collection of dues is usually done by mail, often as part of the class officers' newsletter. Class dues are often used to defray the cost of class organized events during reunions, souvenirs given out at reunions, and mini-reunions. Class officers should clearly explain the purpose of the dues in their request to classmates.

4. Maintain a class bank account and preserve the class financial records, if applicable. (Classes who have already celebrated their 55th Reunion are no longer required to collect dues and maintain a treasury, except as needed in the year prior to Reunion.)

5. Assist in the writing of the class officers' newsletter to classmates.

6. Become an informed advocate for Wheaton, one's class and the Annual Fund.

It is possible for each class to obtain a Tax I.D. number from the Federal Government. Click here for more information.
