Hello, everyone! A year has passed, and it's time to turn over the reins to a
new board. If you have great ideas for the future of NAAAP-NC, or if you want
some different activities that we didn't have, here's your chance!
The elections will be for the positions of President, Secretary, and
Treasurer. We are in the process of finding a location for the elections, which
will take place in late February. Once elected, the 3 will choose or invite
additional board members to serve on committees. Don't be hesitant to nominate
yourself. You must be a current, paid NAAAP-NC member to nominate someone, and
all people running must be current, paid NAAAP-NC members.
Have you forgotten to pay your dues? Dues are now just $20, and you can pay
at any NAAAP event, or contact me or our treasurer, Tom at songvich@us.ibm.com,
to arrange payment by mail.
To nominate someone or yourself, BY FEBRUARY 9th, email to judy@unclaw.com a
2-6 sentence description of the nominee and why s/he should be President,
Secretary, or Treasurer. This information will be compiled for and printed on
the ballots. At the election, each candidate will have a chance to make a brief
statement and take questions.
Here is a description of responsibilities: President: The president shall
preside at all meetings of the board and the membership and, in general, perform
all duties incident to the office of president and such other duties as are
prescribed by the board.
