After deliberate, and frank discussion, your board reached consensus on a recommended slate. You can vote for up-to four candidates
NSP’s List of Needs was used as the criteria to evaluate the candidate’s qualifications:
Proven leadership outside the NSP.
Experience serving on active boards, either for-profit or non-profit.
Professional or service-related knowledge needed on the NSP Board.
Diversity of gender, ethnicity, race, disability status, veteran status, and LGBTQ status.
Knowledge of NSP’s challenges, goals, priorities, and a strategic vision for the future
Also on the Ballot: Voting Rights
Currently, NSP bylaws DO NOT allow Mountain and Bike Host voting rights, while collecting full dues. This member class deserves a voice.
The Board supports a YES vote to change Hosts to Traditional Members
