For Distribution to the USGenWeb Project Members,
Due to some miscommunications the Advisory Board has gotten
a late start on the elections
process. Elections [voting] for Representatives will begin
on July 1st, 1999. However, the
Elections process begins today, June 1st, with the opening
of Nominations for a period of two
weeks. Ginger Hayes, Celia Snyder, and Mary Ann Hetrick
have volunteered to serve on the
Nominations committee. Ginger Hayes has agreed, via Megan,
to Chair that committee. It is my
understanding at this writing that an e-mail list is being
requested for this committee to begin
accepting nominations.
A general call through the STATE-COORD-List has gone out to
all SCs to prepare a list of
elgible voters and to name a Liaison person to communicate
with the Elections Committee for
their state. Several states have completed this part.
The Advisory Board is verifying the positions needed to be
filled and I'm sure that an
announcement will be made yet today about this.
Also, at this time the Advisory Board wishes to put out a
general call for volunteers to serve on
the Elections Committee. The Elections Committees are made
from both USGWP Volunteers
and Advisory Board members.
Respectfully submitted,
Bill
Secretary--
