...between photographers themselves
...between ASMP members at national and local levels
and as an informational tool for buyers of photography.

2011 Election Information
Welcome to chapter election season! Per our
by-laws, our members elect a board of directors every second year.
And for the next month, its your job to weigh in, get active,
and vote for whomever you think can keep our chapter among the strongest
in the nation.
This is a 2-step process: Any ASMP member can
be a director, but in order for them to be considered for the board,
YOU will have to nominate them, and YOU will have to vote for them.
Between now and Dec. 31, ASMP Colorado is accepting
nominations. To nominate someone for the board (first check with
them to be sure its OK) send an eMail to [email protected].
You can nominate as many people as you want, but they all must be
chapter members. You can even nominate yourself!
Ballots will go out on Monday, January 17th and
need to be returned by January 31st. All General and Life members
will receive a ballot via email. Each will have the names of all
nominees and their statements. Directions for casting your ballot
will be included.
The fine print:
· Your nominee will be asked to provide
a statement as to why or how they plan on maintaining or improving
the quality of this chapter. They should prepare this as soon as
theyre nominated.
· The chapters by-laws stipulate
that there will be no more than 12 directors on the Board. (But
the board can vote to expand or contract.) Those receiving the most
votes will be made Directors. Board terms are for 2 years.
· The board will vote positions such as
President, Secretary, and Treasurer etc. on Wednesday, February
9th. New board members will be expected to attend this and future
board meetings, which occur on the second Wednesday of even months
at the Denver Press Club downtown.
