Description du poste

Secretary position for National Airmail Museum

The National Airmail Museum is a new attraction being planned in Fort Wayne. The museum will be housed in the (soon‑to‑be) renovated 1930's‑era "Hangar 2" on the east side of Smith Field. The museum will look back at the National Airmail Service— and the important role Fort Wayne served for the service. The museum will also feature local residents who played very important roles in aviation over the years and decades. In addition to looking back, the museum will also look forward to the future of aviation, by offering interactive exhibits—such as a "drone zone," simulators and various displays and activities that introduce visitors to the ever‑expanding field of aviation. The museum was approved and authorized by official decree of the U.S. Congress.

As our project continues to develop and grow, we are in need of a Secretary for our Board. The Secretary role involves four general responsibilities:

1. Meeting Documentation – recording and distributing minutes.
2. Records Management – maintaining the Articles of Incorporation and By‑laws, and managing any IRS documentation.
3. Compliance – assuring that the By‑laws are followed and maintaining the Board roster.
4. Communication – developing and distributing meeting minutes and agendas; handling any other official correspondence.

This position seeks someone who is highly organized, able to concisely document the discussions and information presented during the board meetings, and handle matters professionally. We also seek a candidate who has a passion for the mission of the museum and its goals.

This office involves a three‑year term. The board meetings are held monthly (at the terminal building at Smith Field) and are usually 2 to 2½ hours in length. Completion of the other tasks specific to this office will require 4–7 hours per month.

We will be very happy to answer any inquiries regarding this position. Thank you.
