SANFORD, NC - Bobby Powell will step down from his chairmanship of the Central Carolina Community College Board of Trustees on July 28, after serving the maximum number of terms allowed by the board’s bylaws.

 

Powell has served in that position since July 2006, when the other board members first elected him as the chairman. Powell has served four, one-year terms. He said he plans to continue serving as a board member, as he has done for 16 years.

 

“It has been an honor and a privilege to serve as chairman,” Powell said. “It was humbling that the rest of the board members wanted me to serve four terms. I plan to keep serving on the board as long as I know I’m being effective.”

 

 

“Bobby Powell has given unstintingly of his time, experience, and insight to our board of trustees,” said Central Carolina C.C. President Bud Marchant. “We appreciate the leadership he has provided over the past four years and look forward to his continuing as a board member for many more years.”
