Welcome to the SERCAL Board Election Page
SERCAL board and officer terms begin January 1 of each year. The current board vets and nominates a slate of candidates for open positions, and in Dec/Jan, we ask our members to vote for the confirmation of these candidates. All candidates commit to serving a 3-year term.
