Re: IAS Newsletter & IAS Governing Board Vacancies

---

Dear Lester:

 

When I clicked on your link I got this wonderful list of all the volumes but was any of this intended to get one to any article or even to the most recent article which I wanted to see?  If so how do I get it to open? I clicked on it and it seems not to be a live link.

The IAS Newsletter, August edition is in the hands of our printers and should be in members’ mailboxes soon.  Articles include a Swedish Show & Plant Sale/Swap, Difficulties with transplanting a Philodendron Meconostigma, an announcement of the IAS September Show & Sale in Miami and vacancies in the Society’s Governing Board.

Membership in the IAS Governing Board involves a three-year term with a turnover of one third of the members annually.  Accordingly, there will be five vacancies.  In years past, our membership was small and enough people attended the annual banquet to achieve quorum.  As of today, we have 1,843 members from 51 nations across the globe.  Reaching a quorum at this year’s meeting will be impossible.  Consequently, we are initiating an email vote and are now seeking nominations.

An email has been sent to all members.  Members will also find instructions on submitting nominations for someone else or for oneself in this issue of the newsletter.

Active members may access the newsletter online at the following link:  https://www.aroid.org/society/newsindex.php

Non-members and inactive members will see a list of current and previous newsletters but will not have access to the newsletters themselves.
