2022 Muskoka Pride Community - Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of Muskoka Pride is a dedicated group of individuals from across Muskoka who volunteer their time to bring visibility and build acceptance and celebration of the LGBTQ+ community of Muskoka.  Elections are held every year at the Annual General Meeting held in the fall.  Directors are elected to a 2-year term by the membership, and Executive positions are elected by the Board for a 1-year term.

​MERV TAYLOR-MORIN - PRESIDENT
I have been a Registered Practical Nurse since 1974, and worked in nursing in Bracebridge 12 years and in Ottawa for 30 years. I hold an honors BA in sociology from Carleton University, with a queer history and rights focus. I have worked with the College of Nurses of Ontario. I was active with CUPE in human and gay rights. During my last 8 years in nursing, I was an educator and team leader. I revised and delivered the orientation program to all new staff. I was involved in the revision of the provincial resident assessment program, tools and guidelines, and known to be a positive and effective mentor for other homes in eastern Ontario.
Since I am retired now, I will have plenty of time to invest in Muskoka Pride and its Board. I can and will be available to support and assist other members of the Board as requested, and investigate the issues affecting our community.

GLEN YACULA - TREASURER
I became a member of Muskoka Pride shortly after relocating to Bracebridge in 2014. As a member, I enjoyed attending and participating in several of the scheduled events that were offered throughout the year. I also actively volunteered for the organization, being reliable and dependable. I not only volunteered my time, but offered the skills and expertise I have, with my design background.   I was thrilled to be recommended and accepted to be part of the Board in 2016, and then again in 2018.  With having the experience of one term under my belt, I am confident to focus my efforts on areas within the organization that I feel would benefit from having a Board member dedicate their time and efforts to advance them from where they were a year ago.
