ANREP elections coming up later this summer

 

Just a heads up that ANREP's annual election for association leaders is coming up later this summer. We will be electing a president-elect, treasurer, and representatives for the northeast and north central regions. Those individuals will assume their offices on January 1, 2025. 

 

Past ANREP leaders often reflect that their time in an association board role was a great experience. Historically, our leaders were both seasoned professionals and those at an earlier staged in their career. 

 

To learn more about one of these roles, please see the ANREP Policies and Procedures manual (starts on page 7), or contact a board member.
