However, the structure of the board is expected to change significantly due to the transfer of A and HL cards to the Soo Pee Wee. Before elections, the membership will vote on Constitutional Amendments to restructure the board.
Because of the uncertainty of which board positions will be up for election, this year nominations forms will be considered complete even if the position field is left blank. During the AGM before the commencement of elections, each nominee will be required to fill in the position they are seeking on their pre-submitted nomination form.
