BVRC 2026 Board of Directors Election Information

It is that time of year to prepare for BVRC Board Elections. The Board election will be held during the month of November as an online voting process, and the results will be announced at the annual Christmas and Awards Banquet on December 4, 2025. Nominations for Board positions will be taken up through the BVRC club meeting on November 6, 2025.

BVRC Board positions include:

  • President
  • Vice President
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer
  • Public Information Officer
  • Technical Officer
  • Repeater Trustee
  • Member at Large*

* The Member at Large Board position is filled by the immediate past president of BVRC and is not an elected position.

All Board position descriptions are available on the BVRC website, under the “Our Mission” section that contains the BVRC Bylaws.

There are two vacant positions to be filled for year 2026. These are:
Vice President
Secretary

At this time, all other current Board members have accepted a nomination to continue in their position for the 2026 year.

If you would like to run for a Board position, please forward your nomination along with a statement of qualifications (100-200 words) to BVRC’s Election Committee Chair, Joe Hott, W5AEN (joe.hott@gmail.com) who will compile the nominations up through the November 6, 2025 club meeting. The submitted nominations and qualification statements will be available to BVRC members on the club’s website. Joe Hott will then oversee the online election process for any Board position with more than one nomination.

If there are no other nominations for a Board position other than for the Board member currently serving, those unopposed Board members will be part of a consolidated confirmation vote to continue current Board unopposed members in their positions for another year. This consolidated confirmation vote will be taken at the December banquet.

Thank you for your membership in the Bella Vista Radio Club.
