SWA Board Elections & President's Report

Hi Everyone,

As we near the 2022 SWA AGM on Dec 11th at 11:00 am via Zoom, I wanted to provide my 2022 President's Report directly to you. It can be found here.

I am excited to say that, as outlined in the 2022 Elections Details document, nominations are now open for the 2022 SWA Board of Directors Election! Additionally, two Board members (Hanna and Jaimie) have decided to step down from their roles and end their terms early as of the 2022 AGM with the intention to put their positions up for election this year. As a result, pending Board approval on Nov 27th, there will likely be two additional positions up for election for 1-year terms.

The UPDATED Elections document (pending Board approval on Nov 27th, 2022) can be found here. The only proposed changes are the addition of the roles noted and bolded below.

If passed by the Board, the following positions will be contested in this election:

  1. President (3-year term)

  2. Secretary/Treasurer (1-year term)

  3. Director-at-Large (3-year term)

  4. Director-at-Large (1-year term)

Members will be eligible to run for Positions #1 (President) OR #2 (Secretary/Treasurer) AND/OR Director-at-Large, but they cannot run for Positions #1 (President) AND #2 (Secretary/Treasurer)

The outcome of the Board decision on Nov 27th will be confirmed in response to this email following that meeting on Nov 27th or 28th.
