Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the Society is transitioning over the next two years to the new configuration approved by the membership at the August 2007 Annual Meeting. It currently consists of all Society Officers, all past Presidents, twelve Directors and six Unit Representatives. In 2008 and 2009, as their terms of office expire, the seats of four of the remaining Directors will be converted to Unit Representatives. At that point, all units or groups of units will have representation on the Board. The Officers of the Society will serve for three years. Elections will be held every third year at the Society's Annual Meeting held during the Annual Reunion. The Unit Representatives will be selected by their units and approved by the membership at the next Annual Meeting after their selection. The President of the Society presides at all Board meetings. The Board of Directors meets at least two times annually, one of which is at the Society Reunion. The Executive Committee (EXCOM), consisting of five members of the Board of Directors, elected by the Board of Directors for a one-year term, governs the affairs of the Society between Board of Directors meetings. Its members elect their Chairman. EXCOM meetings are held at the call of the Chairman.
