Folks, we're not too far away from that time of year again. As the chair of the Nominations Committee, I will be accepting nominations for our 2027 Board.
As members are nominated, I will contact them to let them know they've been nominated and for which office and find out if the nomination is accepted. If it is accepted, that person's name will be placed on the ballot.
Below is the text of the by-laws article covering officer nominations:
Article III of the Calvert Amateur Radio Association By-Laws, titled “Board of Directors.”
SECTION 3: Nomination and Election of Board of Directors. By no later than the 1st (first) of October of
every year, the Nominating Committee shall present a slate of proposed Officers and At-Large Director to
the Board of Directors and shall present such slate to the membership at the October Regular Meeting.
Additional nominations may be made by Members at the October Regular Meeting. Nominations will be
closed at the end of the October Regular Meeting. The Secretary shall distribute Nominations to
Members via email after the October General Meeting, and no later than ten (10) days before the
November meeting. Names of the candidates, the date, time and location of the November General
Meeting shall be included in this email. Voting shall be by ballot when there are two (2) or more
candidates for President, Vice President, Secretary or Treasurer or the At-Large Director. An open vote
may be taken for any candidate who is unopposed. Newly elected Board Members shall take office on
January 1st.
We have a number of folks "wearing multiple hats". The club is all of ours. Let's see if we can share some of the effort that goes into keeping it moving forward.
