Chapter endorses Helm for national board

The Atlantic Chapter recommends a vote for Jessica Helm in the upcoming election for the Sierra Club’s Board of Directors.


The annual election for the national board is held in April. Members should have received ballot information and candidate statements in the mail.


The board serves the membership in deciding policy, conducting governance, and keeping the Club effective in pursuing our key mission to Explore, Enjoy and Protect the planet. The board is the highest governing body in the Club. It consists of 15 members, of whom five stand for election every year.


Two other members of the Atlantic Chapter are running for the national board:  Aaron Mair, of the Hudson-Mohawk Group, as a nominated candidate, and Frank Morris, of the Long Island Group, as a petition candidate.
