Dear Dan Member,
I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. As the secretary of the Board of Directors, the Federation’s By–laws charge me with overseeing distribution of and tallying responses for all Board Director nominations and election ballots. In each region where Board Director terms are expiring, nomination forms were mailed to all Dan members eligible to vote and who had current membership. The top two nominees (or 3 if a tie between any two) from each region are listed below and each has accepted their nomination and agreed to run in this election. Board Directors elected in 2019 will serve your region for a term of three years from 01/01/2020 to 12/31/2022.
Region 1: Paul Chiasson None
Region 4: George Broyles None
Region 5: Jennifer Resler None
Region 7: Nicole Herlofsky None
Region 8: Andrew Hamer Jen Rupert
As a Federation member you have the right to vote for your regional representative to the Board of Directors. All active Dan members over the age of 18 are eligible to vote.
