On June 1 at 9 a.m. Eastern, USPA began the process of having its members elect its 22-member board of directors for the 2025-2027 term. All USPA members in good standing who have a total of two years of accumulated membership and are at least age 18 on or before August 1 are eligible to run for one of the 14 regional director or eight national director seats. To be on the ballot, all candidates must submit the required election materials electronically at uspa.org/election—including the Director Candidate Biography form, an acceptable photograph and a non-refundable $50 filing fee—by 5 p.m. Eastern August 1.

The election period runs for one month only, from October 1 through October 31. Section 3-1 of the USPA Governance Manual, which is available for free download at uspa.org, lists other important details. Those elected will take their seats at the first 2025 board meeting, March 15-17, in Daytona, Florida.
