Any Former Officer(s) may be appointed to the board as a Director(s) by a simple majority vote of all members of the Board; provided, however, that a vacancy or vacancies in the Board of Directors shall be deemed to exist pursuant to Section 5 of this Article. The appointment of the Director shall last one (1) year, at which time the Director may be retained or a new Director may be appointed to the position; there is no limit to the number of appointments a Director may receive.

Any Director may resign at any time, either by oral tender of resignation at any meeting of the Board (followed by prompt written notice to the Secretary of the Society) or by giving written notice thereof to the President or the Secretary of the Society.

Thank you for stepping up as directors. Hopefully we won't need your expertise but so glad that you will be around if we do.
