Nominations Open for 3 AASV District Directors

December 26, 2017 — AASV Staff

Have you ever considered serving the AASV in a governing role? Nominations for the office of AASV District Director are currently being sought in three AASV districts. Nomination cards have been mailed to all eligible voters in Districts 1 (Northeast US), 4 (Indiana and Michigan), and 6 (Iowa). Potential candidates must be Active (veterinarian) AASV members residing in the district to be represented (Affiliate, Associate, and Student Members are not eligible to hold office or vote). In each district, the two nominees receiving the most nominations will be placed on the ballot, subject to their consent to serve.

In Districts 1 and 4, the current directors, Drs. Lynette Holman and Jeff Harker, have each served two terms and are not eligible for re-election. In District 6, Dr. Locke Karriker has served one term as director and is eligible to serve a second term.

The newly elected district directors will begin a three-year term of office upon the conclusion of the 2018 spring Board of Directors meeting, to be held in Perry on April 3.

The AASV district directors (eleven in all), along with the officers, form the governing board of the AASV; see www.aasv.org/aasv/contacts.html for the current board roster and district apportionment. The Board of Directors meets twice annually (typically in March/April and September/October in Perry, Iowa) to set policies and conduct association business. Minutes of past board meetings are available for review at www.aasv.org/aasv/board.htm. 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).
