We invite you to participate in a key activity for the Middle Atlantic Planetarium Society — the nomination of new board members. MAPS is committed to building a large and diverse pool of candidates, and that can only happen with your participation.
MAPS encourages your participation in this process. When presenting a nomination, please be as thorough as possible regarding your knowledge of the nominee. MAPS welcomes self-nominations as well.
It takes only a few minutes to fill out the nomination form, but the impact is lasting. For specific questions, please contact Kevin Williams, Elections Committee Chairperson, at williakk@buffalostate.edu.
