Election Ballots Going Out for 2019 BoD Positions

It’s SCCA® Board of Directors voting season again, with five of the 13 designated Areas selecting members to serve on the BoD. Board members serve a three-year term. Ballots are mailed to addresses on record with the SCCA office for those in Areas with an upcoming election. Per SCCA policy, areas without contested elections will not receive ballots and be recorded as a 1-0 election.

Ballots should arrive soon in some mailboxes, but please allow at least a week for ballots to be delivered. Instructions are included with the ballot. Completed ballots should NOT be returned to the SCCA office. Instead, votes will be tallied by Mize Houser & Company. A postage paid return envelope is included with the ballot for your convenience.

If you feel you did not receive a ballot and should have, or if you have questions, please contact membership@scca.com or call 800-770-2055.
