Election Ballot Coming

By Dr. Ann Turner, Executive Director

One sign of a vigorous association is excitement and widespread interest from the membership in seeking elected office. AALAS is indeed a healthy association. This year, there are more candidates seeking trustee and alternate trustee positions than in the past several years. Several candidates, all stellar individuals filed petitions for Vice President Elect, and the Nominations Committee had the arduous task of choosing two of these candidates to be placed on the ballot.

The ballots were mailed June 1. Now it is your turn to contribute to the health of our organization by participating in this election. When you receive your ballot, please review it, give careful consideration to the candidates' experience and position statements, choose the candidates you believe can best lead the association in the coming years, and VOTE! Ballots must be cast (postmarked) on or before July 5.
