2014 Officer elections will be held at the November meeting, which is closed to the general public. Please post your nominations for yourself or another member here.
We have the Treasurer and Vice-President positions open, however each Cabinet position may be ran for. I encourage you to place your hat in the ring for whichever position you would like. Turnover in the cabinet is natural and helps keep things fresh.
Pertinent excerpts of the Constitution, Articles 2, 5, and 6 are below for quick reference. Details on each position are in the full Constitution which I have attached for reference.
Article 2
Section 2. Elected Officers
The elected officers of this Club shall be: President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Activities Director.
Article 5
Section 1. Eligibility
Any person who has been a paid member for at least six (6) months and is in good standing with this Club may run for an elected office.
Section 2. Nominations
Nominations will open at the August membership meeting and will close at the November membership meeting before balloting commences. The method of collecting nominees' names shall be done at the discretion of the President or whoever is chairman at those meetings.
Section 3. Balloting
A secret ballot election shall be held at the November membership meeting. Only paid members may vote. The President shall determine how the secret balloting will take place.
Section 4. Tally
The President shall form a committee of three members not running for office to tally the ballots. After tabulating the results, the committee shall submit a report to the President as soon as possible, but no later than the next Board of Directors meeting. If any or all of the committee wish to present the report at the Board meeting instead, they may do so. The new officer(s) for each office shall be that person(s) with a plurality of the votes for that office.
Article 6
Installation of Officers
Section 1. New Officers
Installation of the new officers shall occur at the January membership meeting.
Section 2. Officers Filling Vacancies
Any officer filling a vacancy shall be installed at the meeting at which the membership voted its approval.
If you have any questions please send me a PM as I'm happy to help.
Now, let the nominations begin!
