Arlington Soccer Association - Arlington, VAASA Seeking New Executive Director

After a mere 35 years on the job, ASA Executive Director John "Mac" McLaughlin has announced his upcoming retirement.  (We'll have more on Mac's achievements in a later issue.) 

As a result, ASA is seeking a new Executive Director.

Do you, or someone you know, have the managerial, financial, administrative and technological skills to put nearly 6000 kids out on the soccer field each weekend, coordinate several hundred coaches and other volunteers, oversee a paid staff, placate a demanding Board of Directors, and keep on top of a large budget?
