Elections are held in the spring each year.

We solicit nominations from the members for the positions that are available for election that year. Members can nominate themselves if there is an interest in a position or nominate someone they think would be a good candidate. We ask that the member contact the person they wish to nominate prior to the nomination to be sure the person is agreeable to the position. If contact has not been made prior to the nomination, the Secretary will contact the potential nominee to verify interest prior to placing the nominee on the ballot.

After nominations have been completed, elections are held. Members are asked to cast ballots for the individual they would like to have in the position. Once the elections have been closed and the ballots have been tallied, the Secretary contacts all nominees to communicate to them the outcome and Public Relations contacts the membership with the election results.

Changes due to the elections are done at the Transition and Planning Board meeting held in early summer each year.

The positions are elected according to Article III, Section I of the bylaws.

Elections occur as follows:

Vice President is elected yearly. It is a 3-year term. The first year is served as Vice President. The second year is served as President. The third year is served as Past President.

Secretary, Public Relations and Education are elected in even years. Each are 2 year terms.

Treasurer and Membership are elected in odd years. Each are 2 year terms.

President and Past President are not elected positions.

Position descriptions are also available as a link from the board member's listing.
