Seeking Nominations for NYS GIS Association Board & President-Elect Positions

The NYS GIS Association is Seeking Nominations for NYS GIS Association Board & President-Elect Positions

The NYS GIS Association is seeking member nominations and candidates for soon-to-be-vacated Board of Directors and President-Elect positions. The Association relies on the committed volunteer efforts and leadership from its membership to be successful and will look to fill open Board of Directors positions this fall.

• Directors serve for two years and are eligible to run for a second term if they desire.
• If you’ve ever wanted to give back, now is a great time to contribute as our membership grows.
• Previous Board Directors are eligible to run again if it has been two years since their last term ended.

Additionally, the Board will be looking for a new President-Elect as the current one transitions into the role of President. The President-Elect serves a three-year term as President-Elect, President, and Past-President with evolving responsibility over that term.

If you think these positions might be right for you and/or have questions, please email the Nominating Committee Chairs, Dawn McCall and Heather Ferrero at: nysgeo@gmail.com. Letters of intent, biographies, resumes, and other relevant materials should also be submitted through the above email. All nominations should be submitted by Thursday, July 13, 2023.

You must be a member in good standing to run for any of the Board positions so please verify or renew your membership. The membership year runs from July 1 to June 30. Election results will be announced during or immediately following the Annual Meeting.
