Call for Nominations & Bylaws Revision
Candidates for 2018-2019 Section Officers

Section Members, The Nominating Committee met on Jan 11th, 2018 and has nominated the following members for executive offices for fiscal year 2018-2019. Please note that there are multiple positions being filled by “repeating” members so we need new & willing candidates to fill these positions. Working as a team, these positions require only small commitment of time. Remember, as a member, this is your section and we need help to make it matter.

  • Chairman- Stephen Slavick
  • 1st Vice Chair- Brian Bain
  • 2nd Vice Chair- Jonas (Buck) Smith
  • Secretary- Stephen Hill
  • Treasurer- Jerry Jacobson
  • Scholarship Chairman- Brian Bain
  • Webmaster- Open

The above nominees have read Section VII of the Bylaws and have accepted the duties and responsibilities of the offices for which they have been nominated. Elections will be held at the Annual Meeting on Wednesday May 9th, 2018.

The general Membership is being canvassed for nominees. Position descriptions & requirements are outlined on the Section website at:
www.awssection.org/cumberlandvalley/ Members who wish to have their names placed on the ballot may do so by attending the March Meeting or by request in writing. After that meeting, any nominations must be in accordance with the “Nomination by Petition” of the section bylaws.

The section Bylaws are in desperate need of revision. The proposed changes will be posted to the website prior to the Annual Business meeting and will be voted on at that meeting.

Election of Officers will be held at the Annual Business
