DETAILS:

As announced at our last WANT General Membership meeting, we will be hosting the annual WANT board elections at our December meeting. We will host an open Nomination period through December 3rd.  During this time, a member not affiliated with the current board will accept nominations for candidates or interest from any member in good standing that wishes to offer themselves as a candidate for any board position through December 3rd, generally via email or phone call.  The Nominations Monitor will collate all candidates nominated during this period and will report their findings to the board by 5pm on December 3rd. 

The next General Membership meeting will be held on the evening of December 8th.  The monitor will verify the result of the Nomination period for the General Membership.    The board will send an announcement at the close of the election period announcing the results and will begin the work of the coming year appropriate to the outcome.
