Following an exhaustive search, the USA Dance Board of Directors unanimously approved the appointment of Esther Freeman as the new National Treasurer for USA Dance. Esther, a native of Medford Oregon, is no stranger to serving USA Dance on the national level. She is the only individual in USA Dance history to have ever served in all four corporate officer positions – National President, Senior Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. On the Chapter level, in July 1995, she joined USA Dance, then USABDA, and helped to start the Southern Oregon Chapter #1011 in Medford, Oregon. She remained an active member and board member until the chapter closed in 2018. An avid social dancer, she then joined the Eugene Springfield Chapter #1010, where she continues to participate and help promote community dance activities.
This experience on the chapter and national levels, when combined with her professional background as an independent Non-profit Management Organization consultant, gives her a historical perspective of our organization that few can match, and allows her to hit the ground running as we rebuild our organization. Esther can be contacted at treasurer@usadance.org.
