Officer Nominations For 2024
Nominations will be open until November 30, 2023. Voting, if necessary, will be from December 1 until December 15, 2023.
One of the current CORE members is leaving their post. Four would like to stay for one more year in the rolls they currently occupy, but that will depend on nominations and/or voting if necessary. If you are interested in any of the MGS positions, please either nominate yourself or have someone nominate you.
Serving as one of the Core Officers is an excellent way of giving back to the Maryland geocaching community.
If there are any questions please feel free to ask on this thread or it's informational thread on Facebook.
