Dear Member:
In accordance with the by-laws of the IPMA-HR Albany Capital Region Chapter, the Election Committee has been formed and is soliciting nominations for Board positions. The Chapter Board of Directors is responsible for the management of the Chapter’s affairs and the planning, development and implementation of all programs and activities. The Board develops future activities and considers other matters brought to the attention of the President by the members. The Chapter Board consists of eight members, all in good standing, and includes the President, President-Elect, Secretary, Treasurer, three members-at-large, and the immediate Past-President. Their terms begin July 1 and end June 30, or until their successors have been elected and installed. Board meetings are generally held the first Thursday of the month from 8:30 a.m. to 9:45 a.m., and Board Members should be present at monthly chapter programs.
We invite any interested Chapter member to run for office. A nomination form and specific job duty descriptions are enclosed. Please complete the nomination form and return it to me no later than May 15, 2009 at maureen.mcdermott@thruway.state.ny.us. You must include your name on the nomination form because the Election Committee must verify that only Chapter members in good standing are nominating and voting for officers.
Once the nominations are received, nominees will be contacted to verify their willingness to run for office and to provide a brief biography, which will be included with the official ballot. The continued success of our Chapter depends on you. Please consider running for office this year.
Sincerely,
Maureen McDermott
Maureen McDermott
President, Albany-Capital Region Chapter
