Greetings, ABA Members,

The time has come to fill several vacancies on the ABA Board of Directors. Three board members are completing their terms of service: Carol Bigler, Myron Berry, and Brian Walker.

We would like to sincerely thank each of them for their faithful service and dedication. Their leadership and commitment have played a significant role in helping the ABA grow into the organization it is today.

In the coming weeks, you will receive an email announcing the opening of nominations for these vacant board positions. The email will include details regarding board terms, nomination procedures, and election protocols.

The Election Committee will contact each nominee prior to placing their name on the ballot to confirm their willingness to serve. Once all nominations have been reviewed and vetted, the election period will begin, and eligible members will receive an electronic ballot to vote for the three candidates who will fill these positions.

We encourage you to begin considering individuals who possess the passion, vision, and commitment to help lead the ABA into its next chapter of growth and success.

Thank you for your continued support of the ABA.
