Election time is once again imminent and there are a large number of Officer and Board positions that have no candidate running. All CONECA members age 18 and older and of at least one year standing are invited to run for any elected position, open or otherwise. You’ll find a full listing of Officer and Board positions and their responsibilities at this web address: http://www.conecaonline.org/content/bylawspage.html
Contested, unopposed, and vacant positions are as follows:
President (Mike Diamond and Mark Lighterman currently running)
Vice-President (vacant)
Treasurer (Jim Checkovich currently running unopposed)
Secretary (vacant)
Board Seat #1: Membership (vacant)
Board Seat #2: Publications (vacant)
Board Seat #3: Youth Director (Jon Sullivan currently running unopposed)
Board Seat #4: Public Relations/Elections (vacant)
Board Seat #5: Webmaster (Ken Potter currently running unopposed)
Board Seat #6: Attribution and Examination Services (vacant)
Board Seat #7: Recognitions and Historian (vacant)
Board Seat #8: Errorama/ANA liaison (vacant)
NB: While our Treasurer, Jim Checkovich, has agreed to serve another term, he’d like the club to begin looking for a replacement.
Any qualified CONECA member can also choose to run as an “at-large” candidate. At-large candidates will be available to fill any position that remains open after the election has concluded. Naturally, it would have to be a position that appeals to the candidate.
