It's Time to Shape the Future of Disc Golf - Vote in the 2013 PDGA Elections
Date Published
The 2013 Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) elections have officially begun, and will run throughout the entire month of July. As a PDGA member, you play a crucial role in shaping the future of disc golf by participating in this democratic process.
During the first week of the elections, all current members with an email address on file will receive an online ballot from Intelliscan, Inc., the PDGA's elections service. Members without an email address or whose email bounces back will be mailed a postcard with instructions on how to access their online ballot. On July 20th, a voting reminder will be sent to all members who have not yet cast their ballots, and those without internet access can request a paper ballot from the PDGA office by that date.
The PDGA Board of Directors is composed of seven individuals who oversee various aspects of the organization, including setting policies, managing finances, hiring staff, and representing the interests of its members. This year, two at-large positions are up for election, with the winners serving three-year terms from September 1, 2013 to August 31, 2016.
The candidates vying for these positions possess a range of skills and qualifications, including experience in management, marketing, finance, strategic planning, and non-profit work. They also demonstrate a passion for disc golf and a commitment to the PDGA's mission. The seven declared candidates are:
* Kevin McCoy from Georgia
* Matt Peckham from South Carolina
* Peter Shive from Wyoming
* Shawn Sinclair from Kentucky
* Michael Solt from Pennsylvania
* Dave West from Missouri
* Job Wilson from Kentucky
In addition to the Board of Directors election, members will also be voting for State/Provincial Coordinators in their respective regions. These coordinators play a vital role in representing the PDGA and organizing disc golf events within their states or provinces.
To cast your ballot, simply log into your email account or request a paper ballot from the PDGA office by July 20th. Every vote matters, and participating in this election is essential for shaping the future of disc golf.
