05/07/2020 - Time to NOMINATE Reps for Regions 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10



Join the NAMHSA Board of Directors and give back to the hobby


Have you always wanted to know how the world’s largest model horse hobby organization works from the inside? Do you have ideas about how to make the model horse showing world bigger and better? Do you have what it takes to represent your Region on the NAMHSA Board of Directors? If you have answered yes to these questions, then NAMHSA Wants YOU!
Current NAMHSA Showholders and Individual Members, it is time to nominate candidates for Regional Representative for Regions 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10. As a NAMHSA Showholder and Individual Member, it is your privilege and responsibility to nominate candidates for your region. You can nominate here.
The NAMHSA 2020-2022 Regional Representatives will take office at the public Annual Meeting in July 2020. Their term will be for two years, ending at NAN 2022. This year, only EVEN-numbered regions are up for election (odd-numbered regions will be up for election in 2021). Showholders and Individual Members may nominate anyone for the office (including themselves), however, you MUST be certain the person you are nominating has confirmed they are willing to run for office. Current office holders (whose terms are expiring at the July 2020 public Annual Meeting) may be nominated again, provided they are willing to run for re-election. The nominee must reside within the Region for which he or she is nominated.
Candidates need to be aware that the job requires a lot of communicating between the members in their region and the Board, and requires making the time and commitment to QUICKLY respond to Board work and issues. Board members assume ultimate responsibility for running NAMHSA and assuring a quality NAN. Daily Internet accessibility is required, as the NAMHSA Board is primarily an online forum and email entity. It requires the ability to read and respond to Board forum posts and emails from the public every day. Representatives are encouraged to participate in discussions with their constituents regarding NAMHSA issues on all social media platforms used by NAMHSA.
THE NOMINATION DEADLINE IS May 15, 2020. You can nominate here.
Voting Ballots for the election will be sent out in June.
