With our current projects such as dealing with the no-longer 2021 conference venue and so on I'll actually go ahead and fill the role if there are no other candidates but then you all get to decide who wants to be Vice President, so think on that. :) As I said previously, please get in touch if you are interested or have questions about being a candidate. <div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Jason<br class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Oct 28, 2020, at 11:19 PM, Jason Boyer <<a href="mailto:boyer.jason@gmail.com" class="">boyer.jason@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hello everyone, as Anna is resigning her office more than 6 months before her term would normally end we are able to fill the office of board president with a special election. While being VP I could simply act in her stead for a few months or nominate myself in this election, I'll also likely be off of the board at the end of our May or June meeting. That being the case I would like to offer this as an opportunity to Chris Burton or Chris Owens, whose terms end in 2022, or Jessica Woolford, whose term also ends in 2021 to run for the office of The Evergreen Project board president. (Sorry Debbie and Jeanette, you can't run for office in your first year on the board. :) ) <div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This would give one of you an opportunity to try out the office of board president for a shorter time with the added bonus of Anna still being around and the rest of the 2020-2021 officers continuing in their current positions. Perhaps you will decide you don't want to continue after the spring handoff meeting and that will be that, or perhaps you will want to run again for the 2021-2022 term. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">All of that said, I'll be accepting nominations or self-nominations for board president from today until Friday, November 13th.
