From July 1-31, USPA members in the Pacific Region have the opportunity to vote in a special election to fill the vacancy created when previous Pacific Regional Director Brett Martin relocated out of the region. The new director will take their seat at the September 18-20 USPA Board of Directors Meeting in Nashville and serve the remainder of the term, which runs through 2021. Pacific Region members with valid email addresses on file with USPA will receive an email to access an electronic ballot, which they can also access by logging into their accounts at uspa.org. Those who wish to request a paper ballot can contact Director of Membership Services Stephanie Seidel at (540) 604-9740 or sseidel@uspa.org. The ballot will present the qualified candidates, as well as a blank space for a write-in candidate. USPA must receive completed ballots by July 31 at 5 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
