ATTENTION BRB MEMBERS! It’s time to nominate officers for the 2024 elections.
The 5 positions that need nominations for 2024 are: Advisor, President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer.
*Who may nominate a member, and vote: Any member who is in good standing with a paid membership, may nominate any other member in good standing, for any of the 5 positions, which also means, if you wish to do so, you may nominate 1 person for each position, for a total of 5 nominations. If you only have a nominee for 1 or 2 positions that’s fine too. The current list of eligible members is posted at the bottom. Yes, you can nominate yourself.
PLEASE ask any member you wish to nominate BEFORE you nominate him / her to serve, to make sure they are willing.
The time period for nominations for officers opens today, December 7, and will run through December 28, 2023.
The time period for voting for nominees will be January 1, 2024 through January 6, 2024.
Voting will take place by EMAIL. Please send your nominations to:

Ron Witherspoon will post the nominees here on Facebook December 31, 2023 as his time allows. Voting will take place from January 1 – January 8, 2024. Ron will try to post the election results by January 9, 2024.
This time frame for elections should allow the new 2024 board to be ready for the first launch, January 20, 2024.
As a side note, 2023 president Ron Witherspoon and VP Randy DeArman are stepping down after serving for 2022 & 2023. Please do not nominate them for 2024. They will still be a regular part of the club, helping as they can, and coming to launches.
