The meeting document described Manaia as a “human resource executive with progressive HR experience who enjoys gardening and feels it is important to keep the town looking beautiful.”Andrea Weeg, the group’s chair, and members Victoria Spice and Georgianna McElroy, are all returning to the Horticulture Committee for an additional two years.The Berlin Parks Commission will welcome two new members. According to the mayor’s official nomination forms in the meeting packet, recently appointed member Corey Davis is the founder and director of Swim Ocean City, a nonprofit organization that “trades as Ocean Games.” The charitable group was kickstarted to raise funds and awareness for traumatic brain injuries.Michelle Gillespie, who is also joining the Parks Commission, moved to the area from Philadelphia in 2006. She has 30 years of experience in public relations, life sciences, and the pharmaceutical sector, with a specialization in patient advocacy and engagement. She is interested in sustainability and the environment.The newcomers’ term lengths are yet to be determined, as Tyndall notes that the Berlin Parks Commission offers volunteers to serve one or two years on the group.“We asked the candidates which one they would like, and if they are both interested in two years, we will draw their names out of a hat to decide,” he said.The appointment recommendations passed unanimously.</div></body>
