The Board of Directors of the YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit announced the election of new officers for a two-year term to its historic Board of Directors.

James M. Nicholson, vice president, PVS Chemicals, Inc., has been elected as the 54th Chair of the Board in its 163 years of existence.   Following two years of service as chair, William A. Erken, partner, Deloitte & Touche, LLP assumes the role of Immediate Past Chair.

Steven E. Kurmas, president and COO, DTE Energy, and Michael E. McInerney, Principal, MEM Investments, LLC, were elected Vice Chairs. Arthur J Kubert, CFO of Lakeview Capital, Inc., was elected Treasurer; Scott A. Landry, president and CEO of the YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit was elected Secretary.

“We are truly fortunate to have such an extraordinarily talented group of volunteers serving as officers on the YMCA Board,” said Immediate Past Chair William Erken. “YMCA Board officers step in the footprint of great YMCA leaders like Henry Ford and J.L. Hudson.  Today, we need great leaders like those elected to meet the challenges that face our communities with the great potential of the YMCA.”

The YMCA of Metro Detroit was founded in 1852 and currently provides programs and services in Wayne, Macomb, Oakland and Livingston counties to more than 80,000 members through 13 facilities, two resident camps and 3 program centers.
