ELECTION PROCEDURAL
YAC Constitution and Bylaws provide for up to 21 directors on its Board of Directors: five officers, elected by the general membership in attendance at the annual meeting; plus six sports commissioners and 10 members-at-large.
All YAC members in good standing (fully paid in annual dues and sports registration fees) can attend and vote at the Annual General Membership Meeting, scheduled for March 18, 2010 at 7:00 p.m at a location to be announced to the full membership as soon as possible.
All persons interested in running for one of the five officer positions must submit their name, contact information and position sought to

The Committee then presents its endorsed slate of candidates to the YAC Board of Directors for ratification. The Board announces its slate to the general membership.
