The two new members are Elaina Ball and Esther R. Thompson.
Thompson was previously on the Board of Trustees, but took a four-year hiatus. She told the board yesterday that she is happy to return. Thompson is also a local businesswoman, and was appointed by the Cumberland County Board of Commissioners.
