2008 Board of Directors Elections

Join the NRM Board and participate in planning the direction of your division.

Seeking nominations until January 31, 2009!

NRM operates largely on the basis of volunteer efforts. All of the program chairs, board members and officers are volunteer positions. Of course, there is considerable prestige that goes along with these positions ;)

The Board of Directors is responsible for setting the overall direction for NRM and translating member needs into long-range plans and activities, while maintaining the division mission. We are a close-knit team and e have lots of fun at our meetings and at Fall Festival. There are three seats on the Board of Directors that are up for election this spring.

If you are interested in running for the Board of Directors, please submit a written statement and a photo (optional, but appreciated) by January 31, 2009 . Candidate statements and election ballots will be mailed and posted on the website in February.

To run for the Board you need to be a current member of NRM and you need to have been an NRM member for at least two years. You’ll also need to be proficient with e-mail. We hold two board meetings per year, pring and Fall. Travel, food and lodging for BOD meetings are reimbursed. Much of our business is completed over e-mail and on the phone in between meetings. Board members receive one free NRM event per year of service (after the first year of service, and subject to availability). Terms last for three years.
