The nation­al offi­cers of the NACS are elect­ed every four years at the Board of Direc­tors meet­ing. The nation­al Direc­tors-at-large are elect­ed by mailed, paper bal­lots to all the mem­ber­ship pri­or to the Board meet­ing (every four years). I have asked Gary McVick­er, our Vice-Pres­i­dent, who has indi­cat­ed he will not run for any future role as an offi­cer, to lead a nom­i­na­tions sub-com­mit­tee to pre­pare a slate of can­di­dates for the posi­tions avail­able as offi­cers and Direc­tors in addi­tion to those Club Rep­re­sen­ta­tives who will sit on the Board of Direc­tors. If a cur­rent full mem­ber would like to play a more active role in the oper­a­tions of the nation­al orga­ni­za­tion they should con­tact Gary or me before mid-Jan­u­ary.
