THE EYSA BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

The EYSA Board of Directors is comprised of volunteers who participate in the year-round in the governance of the association.  A person wishing to become a director must attend three (3) consecutive meetings and then be nominated by a director.  If seconded, a majority vote is all that is needed to appoint a person to a director position.  Directors do not have term limits and serve in accordance with the standards outlined in our bylaws and/or any other relevant rules and/or regulations.  Each director position is tasked with specific responsibilities regarding the recurring administrative needs of the association and any newly appointed director must fill an unoccupied director position.

 

Effective 09/01/24, meet EYSA's Board of Directors!
