Members may vote in the Honors & Awards categories in the Spring and in the Board of Directors categories in the Fall. All ballots are tabulated by the accounting firm KV Financial Group PC.
Please note: If you are purchasing memberships for more than one person, please use a unique email address for each individual. Ballots for our annual Board of Directors and Honors & Awards elections are sent to each individual member email address. Each email address constitutes one vote.
If you have opted out from receiving our emails, you will not receive the ballots for our annual Board of Directors and Honors & Awards elections. You may opt back in by joining our mailing list here. You will receive an email asking you to confirm this.
