August 8 Handout – call to action
Hope you are all staying cool during this heat wave. Here are some upcoming events that we are hosting or participating in. Also, we are sharing some resources from our trusted partners that could benefit the community and someone you know.
As per our by-laws, the Latino and Latina Roundtable will be electing four officers (President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer) at its membership meeting on Saturday, November 16th to serve on the board for the next two years. Nominations will take place at the next General Membership Meeting scheduled for Saturday, October 12 at 1 PM at the Latino and Latina Roundtable office (1460 E. Holt Avenue, Room 5). If you are interested in running for one of the four positions or if you want to nominate someone, please attend the membership meeting on Saturday, October 12th.
To be able to vote in the election set for November 16th, you have to be a paid member in good standing (30 days prior to the election). In order to vote at the November 16th election, you also must be present at the meeting. If you are nominated for the board on October 12th, as a nominee you should be prepared to make a one-minute statement at the November 16th meeting as to your involvement in the Latino and Latina Roundtable and why you want to be on the board. Any nominee that does not show up to the meeting on Nov. 16th and make a statement will be taken off of the list.
If you have any questions, please contact Alicia Rodriguez at: Mariaaliciar2@gmail.com
