Club Election Update

1 Jul 2024 9:12 PM | Steven Crow (Administrator)

We have a good slate of candidates for the upcoming Board election, but there is still a little bit of time to make any last-minute nominations.  You can nominate yourself, but you'd better act soon!

Candidates, please have the final versions of your biographies submitted for publication no later than 9 PM local time on Friday, July 19.

Nominations and biographies can be sent to election@rats.net.

Important information about voting:

  • Voting will be conducted online through our usual Election Runner system.

  • Biographies and electronic ballots will be distributed to members' email addresses on file as of 9 PM Saturday, July 20.  Distribution will occur sometime between July 21 and 31.  You can update your email address by signing in to your member profile at RATS.net.

  • Members who do not receive their ballot or bios by end-of-day July 31 should contact secretary@rats.net for assistance.

  • Family Memberships:  Your Family Membership includes two or more Full Members.  Every Full Member is entitled to a vote.  Be sure your family members have a unique email address on file at our web site by 8 PM Saturday, July 20 to ensure timely receipt of the ballot.  Contact secretary@rats.net for assistance.

Voting will close at the start of the August 16 membership meeting.

As a minor correction to previously-advertised election timelines, the new Board members are installed at the Membership meeting, not the Board meeting, so they'll take office on September 20 and serve through September 18, 2026.
