Fellow ROC Members,

Election season is upon us, once again.

The ROC Board would like to sincerely thank David Erbas-White for again 
agreeing to serve as our independent Election Chairman this year.  He did the 
same job the last couple of years and deserves a great deal of thanks!

There are nine ROC Board members, each serving 3-year terms on a rotating 
basis. There are three ROC Board seats expiring this year: Allen Farrington, 
Lee Scott, and myself, Greg Lyzenga will all have their current terms on the 
ROC Board of Directors end at ROCstock 40 in November, 2014.  Also, our Tripoli 
Prefect, Rick Magee will have his term expire and will need to be re-elected or 
replaced.

We will hold the election as usual, with the three top vote-getters gaining the 
three-year terms.  We are now accepting self-nominations from prospective ROC 
Board Members.

By the way, voting rights and eligibility to serve on the ROC Board are limited 
to paid ROC "Executive" members, ROC Board members, and ROC "Lifetime" members 
only. While ROC "Daily" and "Family" members are welcome to fly with us at any 
launch, they are not eligible to vote in ROC elections, nor to run for 
positions on the ROC Board of Directors.  So, if you'd like to be eligible to 
vote in the ROC election, or to run for the Board, now is the time to pay your 
annual dues, and become an Executive Member of ROC.

To self-nominate, prospective candidates for the ROC Board should prepare a 
short statement of their qualifications, and send it directly to David 
Erbas-White, our Election Chair.  All candidates are also encouraged to include 
a photograph with their statements.

Candidate statements and photographs should be emailed or postmarked as soon as 
possible between now and the end of August.

The address for candidate statements and photographs is:

ROC Board Nominations
c/o: David Erbas-White
P.O. Box 323
Lake Forest, CA  92609-0323

Alternatively, candidate statements and photographs may be emailed to:

bigbearrockets@xxxxxxx <mailto:bigbearrockets@xxxxxxx>

Ballots will be printed and mailed out during September to all eligible ROC 
Members, along with a copy of the statements and photos submitted by every 
candidate.  Candidate statements and photos will also be posted on
the ROC web site and social media.

Completed ballots must also be mailed back to our Election Chair, David 
Erbas-White, and must be postmarked no later than November 1, 2014. Late 
ballots will not be counted. David will tabulate the election results, and the 
results of the election will be announced at a ROC membership
meeting to be held on Saturday, November 8, 2014, at ROCstock 40.  The newly 
elected board members will start their terms at that time.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
Greg
