Hello AFCA members,

Today marks the second call for nominations for the 2nd Vice President position. Chief Rob Evans, from Redwood Meadows has allowed his name to stand, supported by a nomination from Aaron Floyd, Deputy Chief, Whitecourt Fire Department.

A prerequisite for the 2nd Vice President position is that nominees must have served a minimum of one year on the AFCA Board. This service does not need to be on the current Board but can be from any time they have previously served on the Board.

Additionally, a question has been posed about whether there will be an election for AFCA Director at Large – Rural Membership. The answer is yes. Elections for both the Urban and Rural Director at Large will occur after the 2nd Vice President position has been resolved. This sequencing allows candidates who are not successful in securing the 2nd Vice President position to consider running for either the Rural or Urban Director at Large positions. Please note, the current bylaws do not specify prerequisites for Director at Large positions other than requiring candidates to be active AFCA members.

Questions from our membership are always welcomed!
