I (Bryan Thompson) am serving as the elections chair this year for AFSA Chapter 985.
The AFSA chapter 985 elections will be held on Feb 12, 2009, at our General Membership meeting in the Tinker Club, at 1130.
The positions up for election are President, and three trustees.
Those wishing to run for election to any of these four positions can e-mail me and make your intentions known. To be elected, you must have a current (paid-up) membership in the Air Force Sergeants Association, have a desire and the energy to support the organization, and the support of your peers (they will have to vote for you). Any AB through CMSgt, active duty, ANG or AFRC, active or retired can run, as long as they meet membership requirements. Current, and past executive council members are also eligible for election.
The duties of president are fairly obvious. The trustees are assigned as chairs of committees, such as Legislative, Programs, Membership etc. All four terms are for 1-year in length. Other positions such as Airman Activities Coordinator, historian, chaplain, and additional trustees are appointed by the new president.
Please reply to this e-mail with any questions about the elections, duties of the officers, or your intent to run for a position.
