The passing of the campaign torch took place April 22 at the United Way.

Kelly Bayda and Aimee June will head the 2015 United Way of Chatham-Kent campaign, taking over for Margery and Dean Muharrem, who headed the 2014 effort.

Bayda moved to Chatham in 2010 with her husband and two children. She relocated here to take a branch manager position with Bank of Montreal.

June is also a branch manager with Bank of Montreal, in Blenheim. She’s lived in Chatham-Kent for the past three and a half decades, is married and has two daughters.

For the past three years, June has volunteered for the United Way, two of which were with the fund distribution committee.

Bayda got involved with the local United Way two years ago and is a member of the women’s leadership council. She’s also assisted in the past two Amazing Race fundraisers, and was a member of the 2014 campaign cabinet.

“We are excited to be embarking on this United Way journey together and looking forward to approaching the 2015 campaign from a few different angles,” Bayda said in a media release. “We are ready to spice things up a bit. We are ready to influence and impact change for Chatham-Kent.”

The co-chair announcement took place during the local United Way’s annual general meeting.
