The LOPSA Leadership Committee hereby submits a call for Board Candidate Self-Nominations.

The LOPSA Bylaws (http://governance.lopsa.org/index.php/LOPSA_Bylaws) state:
---
An eligible member may stand for election to the Board if:
A petition, signed by no less than 10 (ten) members of the Association in good standing, is submitted to the Chair of the Leadership Committee, no less than 30 days prior to an election.
---

We request that petitions be sent to leadership-chair@lopsa.org no later than 3/31/2009. This gives the Leadership Committee time to set the slate and start gathering candidate statements. Technically a petition can be sent through the end of April, but candidates are encouraged to submit early to be part of the initial process.

Actual elections for the new LOPSA board will take place in June.

If you have any further questions, feel free to contact any of us, together at leadership@lopsa.org or separately.

Thanks!

Esther "Moose" Filderman, Chair, Leadership Committee
(leadership-chair@lopsa.org -- IRC as "mizmoose")
