As you recall, earlier this year the Fairfax Chapter voted to amend our Constitution, and it was approved by the affiliate board this past spring.
Based on recommendations for diversifying and balancing board membership, this year’s elections may seem a little unwieldy, so feel free to reach out with any questions.
This November, The President and Secretary will be running for a one-year term, while the Vice-President and Treasurer will each run for a two-year term.
Additionally, one of the two board member positions will be running for a one-year term, and the other for a two-year term.
After this inaugural year of our newly approved Constitution, the President and Secretary will run for two-year terms every odd-numbered year, while the Vice-President and Treasurer will run for two-year terms every even-numbered year. One board member will run for a two-year term every odd-numbered year, and the other will run for a two-year term every even numbered year.
Got that?
I have attached the Constitution for your inspection.
If you wish to run for a position, please nominate yourself, or have someone nominate you, at our next meeting, October 17, 2024, from 7:00 to 8:30 PM, via Zoom (link will be sent closer to the meeting).
We will, of course, take nominations from the floor in November as well.
Please be advised that you must have paid your annual membership dues of $5 to run for a position and to vote.
We will soon have our brand spanking new bank account up and running; in the meantime, however, bring your dues to the in-person chapter meeting at Matchbox Reston in November. ** Please note that I will be out of town for a work conference on Saturday, November 23, so we will hold our in-person election meeting on November 16, complete with a fitting celebration, as that will be our Federation’s eighty-fourth birthday.
