Have you ever considered serving the AASV in a governing role? Nominations for the office of AASV District Director are currently being sought in four AASV districts. Nomination cards have been mailed to all eligible voters in districts #2 (southeastern US), #5 (Illinois & Wisconsin), #9 (Minnesota and North Dakota), and #11 (Canada). Potential candidates must be Active AASV members residing in the district to be represented (Affiliate, Associate, and Student Members are not eligible to hold office or vote). Nominations must be returned by mail to arrive in the AASV office by January 12. In each district, the two nominees receiving the most nominations will be placed on the ballot, subject to their consent to serve.
In each of the four districts, the current director has completed a single term and is eligible to serve a second term, if nominated and elected.
The newly elected district directors will serve a three-year term of office which begins AFTER the conclusion of the 2017 spring Board of Directors meeting scheduled for April 3 in Perry, Iowa.
The AASV district directors (eleven in all), along with the officers, form the governing board of the AASV. The Board of Directors meets twice annually to set policies and conduct association business, once in the spring, and again in the fall. Occasionally, the Board conducts additional conference calls or e-mail discussions. For more information, contact the AASV office (Tel: 515-465-5255, E-mail: aasv@aasv.org).
