Officer and Board Member Elections: The Nominating Committee shall be composed of three or more Board members. This committee shall make recommendations to the President when vacancies occur. The Committee shall present a slate of candidates for election. The slate shall be present-ed at the board meeting immediately preceding January 1 of even-numbered calendar years. The committee shall prepare ballots and conduct elections at the membership meeting immediately preceding January 1 of even-numbered years. (Bylaws Article 5.2.3)
Our FoCC ByLaws present committee chair Sally Antonucci with the challenge of producing a slate of candidates for the November Membership Meetings of the odd-numbered years. Sally, with the help of previous chair Phyllis Richardson, makes an essential contribution to the cause, encouraging present elected members to hang in there and talking to other members about taking on the responsibility of leadership. Her committee will come up with at least one nominee for each of the positions we need to fill for upcoming two-year terms: President, Vice-President, Treasurer, Secretary and 2 at-large Board positions.
Nominating Committee Chair Sally Antonucci deftly plants the idea in member Chris Miller’s mind to consider running for the Board. Chris became an At Large Board member for 2020-2021.
