All,
As many of you are aware the Vice President position has not been filled since our last election cycle. We would like to fill this position sooner rather than wait until June of next year to increase the participation we have on the board as well as help with the assigned duties of that position.
Please keep this thread to nominations, seconds, and acceptance of nominations only. I will validate all nominee's meet the criteria as stated in the bylaws. If you have any questions that are not answered in this post please PM me or contact any member of the Board.
