Call for Chapter ExCom At-Large Seats

The chapter is governed by an Executive Committee (ExCom) of twenty-seven members, eighteen of whom are appointed annually by regional groups. Nine At-Large delegates are elected by the membership annually and serve for two years. The chair, vice-chair, secretary, and treasurer are designated officers of the ExCom. Currently, there are four At-Large seats that will need to be filled for the upcoming 2-year term.  New nominees are very welcome; Sierra Club members are all encouraged to run.  Please see below for details on running for an At-Large Seat on the Chapter ExCom.
