In an effort to include all members in the process of nominating and electing new officers, nominations and votes will be accepted via e-mail and postal mail.

Nominations can be made by any member "in good standing", which means those who paid their 2009 dues in a timely manner. Any member in good standing (same definition) may be nominated for any office.

Our club has grown large enough that a significant number of members do not attend any one meeting for a wide variety of reasons, so it is hoped that those who cannot attend specific meetings to nominate or elect officers will be included.

The deadline for nominations will be Dec 1st, 2009.

A ballot will be included in the December newsletter, and votes can be e-mailed to correspondingsecy@longislandbeekeepers.org or mailed to:
Conni Still, 82 Stephen Road, Bayport, NY 11705

It is hoped that all ballots can be counted in January, so that the new officers can take office at the February meeting.

Offices In LIBC Include:
