Elections 2012 This is an election year to select a new executive. There are some alumnae who have agreed to let their names stand and will be more than pleased if further nominations come forward! These alumnae have served on the Executive on more than one occasion over the past few years and would like to step back. All positions are open and we welcome all nominations. In an effort to make it easier for anyone to participate in the election process if you are unable to attend the June reunion a proxy form is available for you to complete and mail in with your dues. It is on the second page of the Registration form. This is your Alumnae Association -- its future survival depends on you and your participation and willingness to be involved! We hope you can attend. |
