Club Election
December 2020
by John Rich
The HCC election was held during the November 11th online general membership meeting.

The nominating committee to seek out candidates was appointed by the Commodore last month, and consisted of Tom Douglas, Bob Naeger and Joe Coker.

Bob Naeger announced the slate of candidates, and called for any additional nominations from the floor - none were forthcoming. A member head count was taken to ensure a quorum was present as required by the club constitution, and it was. Then the vote was taken by online poll. All of the candidates, who were running unopposed, were elected by unanimous "yes" votes. The election was declared complete and valid.  All officers will serve a one-year term commencing January 1st, 2021.
