OK we are late again :doh::doh: sorry........

currently---
pres is RMS692(Rich)
vice is DeftwillP (Will)
treasurer is Magimerlin(Jay(me))

both myself and Rich have talked about it and we both agree to give another term if voted in or there are no one that qualifies. Need Will to chime in about himself though.

We had a bad start this year as we came in so late. We started in late January not November like we where suppose to. And I didn't get the treasurer stuff till late February. Then we also had a Vice president change in the middle of that... So hence our really rocky start and, cramped RoM 2011 set up, and I am truly sorry for that. I know I know no excuse but that is the truth. We have things starting to look better as far as a chapter goes now. We as a chapter now also have money(not alot but its our chapters money) in an account that I had to set up as we didn't even have a bank account when we, the current BoD started. I will start a new thread on a benefit we have from that now too later. That is why Rich and I would both like to continue in our current positions. There are still things left to do and we are still trying to get them done and organized behind the scenes so that when they are finished it will benefit the better part of the chapter and not just a portion of it. We have a few things in the works. And no, no cat will be let outta the bag till it's time....so please do not ask what they are.

But this thread will serve as a nomination thread for the 3 positions.

Major qualification.......must be a paid member(red name) for no less then 1 year and currently be a paid member.

age qualification OK---so must be 18 in order to officially be a NAXJA "paid member" per national rules, so that means you need to have had a 1 year membership from the time you have been 18. Which would make you currently 19+. If so you are now eligible to be a BoD.

If you look at the By-Laws in the sticky it says a 1 year term. We are currently changing that to a 2 year term in order to follow better with the national and most of the other chapters so keep that in mind as well.

So.......this thread will be up for 1 week(10/14-10/21) then I will make a poll for each office that had more then 1 person accept the nomination that will last 1 week(10/21-10/28) and then the BoD will take office on the 1st of November.

National by-laws also state that all members should conduct themselves accordingly and not bring any negative attention to the organization, in other words: be an ambassador.

Your "Pirate>naxja" sig as well as your other shenanigans leading to your recent timeout are proof as anything but that.

yours may ours does not and the TJ thing is over end of story
 
RRC elections only.....period.... I or one of the current Bod will delete any other post then what is here regarding off topic, non area chapter nominations and or acceptances or declines, pictures, rude and or offensive remarks, etc that I or the current Bod feel as such.

End of story, bottom line, do not pass go, no discussion about it.

I edited, in red, all posts that could have been deleted as examples of such threads that will get deleted after this one and the reason for it. Thank you

Jay
