Charter Membership is now closed for the new Slot Card and Room Key Chapter of the CC&GTCC. We will give it until Saturday for slow mail to arrive, that may contain Membership applications submitted with a post mark on or before 30 September, 2002.

The next step is to kickoff the election process, which will commence with a candidate nomination phase.

Any and all Chapter members (as of 30 September, 2002, i.e., Charter Members) are eligible for nomination. I will be finalizing a list (names only) of "eligible" nominees (i.e., the Membership list) and will publish that list so that Members may nominate "eligible" candidates for the four Chapter Officer positions (President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer).

There will be a to-be-determined closing date for Nominations, and following my receipt of those Nominations, I will verify that each Nominee is willing to accept the nomination(s).

I will then prepare a Ballot, which will then be used to conduct the election.

Please NOTE! This is just a general description of the process. I invite your comments and suggestions in advance of finalizing the complete election process.

Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Jim Follis
SC&RK Chapter Election Chairperson
