If you would like to nominate someone (or nominate yourself) to the Public Affairs Council’s Board of Directors, please send your nominations to President Doug Pinkham by Wednesday, July 9. Please make sure to include a current bio for your nominee.

One of the best ways to benefit from your Public Affairs Council membership is to serve on the Board of Directors – an exclusive network of senior executives representing all industry sectors. Board members participate in important task forces, speak at conferences, serve as information resources and promote membership in the organization.

Approximately 160 people serve on the Board, which holds two meetings each year – an issues-oriented forum in Washington, DC, in April and a two-day strategic meeting in the western US in October. This year’s Fall Board Meeting will be held October 15-17 in Dana Point, CA.

Board members are expected to attend at least one Board meeting in their two-year term and are expected to provide financial support to the Foundation for Public Affairs. For more information on roles and responsibilities, please read the Frequently Asked Questions about Board service.

The Nominating Committee will meet in mid-July to consider all nominations. (We always receive more nominations than we have slots available.) You can send nominations via email to Doug Pinkham c/o Elizabeth Goins or via fax at (202) 835-8343. Remember, the deadline is July 9.

Thanks again for your support of the Public Affairs Council!
