At the October 10, 2024 General Membership Meeting and Luncheon, all MSAR members may take part in the democratic process of electing future leadership. During the general business portion of the meeting, the 2025 Slate of Officers will be presented to the membership. Some positions, like President and Immediate Past President, automatically move to the next office and are not subject to election. Others are serving out the second or third year of their terms. There are also new Officers and Directors who have applied as first-time volunteers. These leaders will be read aloud to the general membership via a motion by the Nominating Committee. If we have a contested position, a ballot will be presented, and all members may cast their vote(s). For 2025, no more than 1 person has been nominated for any one position. In this case, a simple majority vote will be taken to elect the Slate of Officers & Directors.
The election of Officers and Directors is one of the most important aspects of voicing your opinion of the future leadership of this Association. We encourage you to attend and look forward to having enough volunteers to create some true campaign competition for 2026!
