2021-2024 Board of Directors

Start: Monday, September 07, 2020 End: Thursday, November 12, 2020

We need your vote

All ROC Executive, Lifetime and Board members are eligible to vote and should have received an email with links to the candidate’s statements and electronic polling via the Wild Apricot Membership Portal.

POLL DESCRIPTION:

Annually, per our Bylaws, ROC elects a portion of the Board of Directors, usually 3 positions. For the 2021-2024 Term, there are 3 slots for 3-year terms. This election, we have five candidates for these positions.

Per the Tripoli Bylaws, we must elect our Prefect as well. Since ROC is a corporation, the President of the Corporation is not the Tripoli Prefect. There is one candidate for Prefect this year.

Best regards,
