The Elections

On June 17, we will enable online voting for the next year's Board of Directors. Voters may withhold their votes to meet with the candidates, then vote at the Barbecue itself. The election results are announced at the event.

Any active member may self-nominate and run for any position. Candidates may run for multiple positions and campaign at events or in the Facebook Group.

There are 11 voting positions on the board. They meet monthly, hold several planning retreats, and maintain constant email communication. They are responsible for maintaining the organization, engaging its members, and setting the agenda for a given year.
