It’s that time of year again. Your opportunity to elect the 2021 Board of Directors. You have from now until Nov. 20 (if by email) or Nov. 17 (if by mail) to vote. The slate of candidates are:
President: Jeneen Sommers or Mike Pittaro
Vice-President: Bob Mitton
Treasurer: Peter Chupity or Neil Panton
Secretary: Pat O’Coffey
Members-at-Large: Angelo Dragone and Eva Knodt and Irma Mitton
The proxy form and ballot have been uploaded to the library, along with candidate statements from: Mike, Jeneen, Peter, Neil, Pat, Angelo and Eva.
As most of the candidates mention in their statements, with the pandemic this has been a challenging year. It has been a challenge to have an anonymous election as well. There are two ways to vote: (1) Send your proxy and ballot to me via email at secretary@sc4arc.org. I will see your e-mail address, but you have my promise that I will immediately separate the proxy from the ballot and that I will not reveal your vote to anyone. (2) Mail your proxy and vote to SC4ARC PO Box 237, La Honda. We will have someone who is NOT on the board pick up the mail from now until the due date of Nov. 20. That person will separate the proxy from the ballot and hand me the ballots. I will count and announce the results of the voting the evening of Nov. 20. A formal announcement of the results will be made by the president, or his designee, at our Nov. 21 zoom general meeting.
Since some folks have had trouble receiving messages from the website, I will also be sending out all of this information to you via email. Please take the time to read the candidate’s statements and vote. It is important that all of us get heard. Thanks. If you have any questions, let me know. Pat
