Upcoming Elections By Trudi Hartley, Membership Chair
The Board positions of Treasurer, Recording Secretary, Corresponding Secretary, Finance Director and Newsletter Editor are elected for two-year terms beginning in even-numbered years. Therefore these positions and now due to be filled for 2012-2013. You will soon be receiving in the mail a ballot to vote for the members nominated by the Nominating Committee or to write in a candidate of your own choosing (including yourself).
Anyone interested in serving the Association in one of these positions should contact Bob Athenour at 846-2966. We would love to have volunteers! We will need these ballots back by January 5 so that the slate of officers can be presented at the January 9 General Meeting. Below is a brief description of the main duties of each of these offices so that you can be thinking of who might be a good candidate:
Recording Secretary: Keeps records and minutes of Board and general membership meetings.
Corresponding Secretary: Takes care of all correspondence from the Association.
Ways and Means: Is in charge of fund raising ( like the BBQ) and works with the treasurer on budgeting
