[Liquidpoets] Election Reminder

[Liquid Poets President]

Hey Poets,



Just a reminder, tonight at midnight is the deadline for nominations for
the 2014 Liquid Poets Board.  If you have something offer or know someone
who you think would be great please nominate yourself or them.  We
especially still need nominations for the Events Coordinator position and
the Treasure position.  Online voting will begin in 1 week and will
continue until our next meeting on December 5th.





As a reminder, here is a quick description of the positions on the board:



*President* - this position is responsible for leading the club at meetings
and through the year.  They will work closely with other board members as
well as delegate to non-board members to get things done.  They will be
responsible for announcing meetings and other news pertinent to the
membership.  They represent the club and are responsible for outreach and
welcoming new members.  They are responsible for the Monthly newsletter to
the membership.  Finally, they are responsible for calling together the
board for meetings which traditionally happen quarterly but are at the
discretion of the president.  Ultimately, this is not a difficult or time
consuming position. It is mainly a communication position and is nice if
you can provide some energy and excitement about and/or behind the club.



*Vice President - *this position is responsible for backing the president
in all of the previously mentioned duties, especially when the President is
not able.



*Events Coordinator - *this position is responsible for coordinating with
all the other breweries in town to provide an annual meeting schedule.
 They are the contact between the club and the breweries for club meetings.
 They are responsible for confirming meeting arrangements in the week/s
prior to the meeting.  They are also responsible for coordinating all other
events that the LPs get involved including, Summer BBQ, Xmas Party, and
other Beer events.



*Competition Coordinator -* this position is responsible for conducting,
coordinating, planning, and arranging all things competition for the LPs.
 The main event is the LP Slam/Muse Cup that happens in June.  This is a
very time consuming position and will require effort, however, it is very
important for the club.  The Competition Coordinator will appoint an
Assistant Competition Coordinator to assist with the competition-related
duties.



*Treasure - *this position handles the finances of the club.  They are
responsible for cutting checks to the appropriate people when necessary.
 They also are the person who deals with the bank.  This position requires
an organized and reliable person.  They are responsible for doing all the
book work also - making sure all the pluses and minus add up.



*Board-at-large (4) - *these positions are advisory positions for the other
positions.  They represent the rest of the membership at the board
meetings.  They often are involved with committees and sub groups to get
other things done behind the scenes such as website work, etc…



The important thing to remember is that this is a volunteer group and the
only way things get done is by volunteering your time!



Cheers,

Matt
