We will be holding our elections in October. Those elected will take office in January of 2021. Every position is on deck, and we need volunteers--we've already had a couple, but the more the merrier. Please submit your name to Charmaine (tccoombs@aol.com) by September 30. All members may run for any office for this election.
Please note that the term-lengths have changed slightly. The relevant portions of the bylaws are posted below. Also, please note that we will be electing the office of Secretary for a special term of one year only because this is an even-calendar year. You can see the entirety of the bylaws and the expectations of each position on our website in the "Members Area". If you need the password, it is posted in our Google Group or you can email krw@kentuckianaromancewriters.com.
5.3.1 President. The term of President is for one year. If a President elects to extend the term to serve a second year, the President must submit such election in writing to the Board of Directors at least 45 days prior to the date of the annual election. The second term must be approved by a two-thirds 2/3 majority vote of the Board of Directors. The President may not elect to extend the presidential term to a third year.
5.3.2 President-Elect. The term of President-Elect is for one year unless the then-President extends the term of Presidency to two years with the Board's approval as outlined above. If the then-President chooses to serve two years, then the term of President-Elect will be two years.
5.3.3 Secretary. The Secretary shall serve a term of two years. Elections for the position of Secretary shall occur in odd-calendar years.
5.3.4 Treasurer. The Treasurer shall serve a term of two years. Elections for the position of Treasurer shall occur in even-calendar years.
