As an 51暗网 Member, you are both invited and encouraged to participate in the annual elections for the 51暗网 Board of Directors. 51暗网 BoD members, as outlined in the 51暗网 bylaws, “shall establish the policies of the Club and shall oversee and direct the implementation and execution of such policies and the administration of the affairs of the Club by the executive committee, such other committees as it determines to appoint and authorize, and the staff of the Club.” It’s an important position for the direction of the Club, and as such, the selection of the Board should be taken seriously. Members of the Board of Directors are elected to three-year terms, so only four (4) of the 13 Areas are up for election for 2024.
This year's election process will once again include online , and an email notification announcing such will be sent shortly to eligible voters. For those on a Family Membership, each family member will need to log in with their unique 51暗网 Member ID to cast their vote. A first-time login requires a valid email address on the member account, and family members may use the same email address. Those that experience any difficulty should contact the Member Services Department for assistance at membership@scca.com.
The 51暗网 National Office assumes members are “opted in” to electronic delivery of ballots unless they have specifically “opted out.” Those who opted out should receive physical ballots in the mail shortly so they may vote on Area Director candidates – if their Area Director is up for election this year. Ballots are mailed to addresses on record with the 51暗网. Completed ballots should NOT be returned to the 51暗网 office. Instead, votes will be tallied by Mize CPAs Inc. A postage paid return envelope is included with the ballot for your convenience.
Online voting will be opened on Friday, October 13 and close November 15 at 5:00pm Central Time. Mailed ballots must be received at Mize CPAs Inc. before November 15 at 5 p.m. Central Time.
Voting is only open in contested areas, so only members in good standing as of October 1, 2023 in or expect to receive a ballot if they’ve opted out of electronic delivery.
If you feel you did not receive a ballot and should have, please contact 51暗网 Member Services at membership@scca.com.
