The Nominating Committee recommends the current board be carried over to 2006. The floor may also make nominations.

The office of Vice President is probably open as Tim Sellers says he does not wish to serve another term.

Holding office is an excellent way to lower your data fees.

To submit nominations you must be present at the meeting or if you can’t be at the meeting call Pat Miller at 503-263-2277 and call her also if you would like to participate on a committee.

Candidate Members can hold the local chapter offices of Secretary and Treasurer. Candidate Members cannot hold any State, Regional, or National office. Candidate Members can vote for the offices of Secretary and Treasurer in local chapter elections.
