Do you want to have a say in the future direction of NHBZ? Do you want to express your opinions to the Board of Directors? You are invited to attend the NHBZ Annual Membership Meeting and Election of Officers on Sunday, November 20, at 11:00 am.

If you would like to give your opinion, makes suggestions or just listen, this is your chance. We will also elect officers and members of the Board of Directors. Here is how the election works. We have a nominating committee that consists of all past presidents. That committee deliberates throughout the year, and comes up with a proposed slate of officers that is presented to the Board in October. At the November Membership meeting, the slate is officially nominated, and other nominations are accepted from the floor. Those members who attend the meeting have the privilege of voting. The Officers and Board members take office on January 1, We have eight officers and fifteen Board members. Officers serve for one year, and can be re-elected. Board members serve for three years, with one third of the Board up for election each year. Here is the slate of nominees for next year: 2017 Officer Nominees President Bob Kaiser Vice President Kenny Bressler Vice President Bobby Levine Vice President Jay Umansky Vice President Richard Woolf Treasurer Don Eisenberg Secretary Susan Scribner Gabbai Alan Zarkowsky 2017 Board Nominees Rhonnie Goldfader Jennifer Hartranft Naftali Kadosh Mike Minoff Margo Tzadok Continuing Board Members through 12/31/2018 Larry Chervitz Marcella Morgensztern Jeff Schnitzer Phyllis Silverman (open) Continuing Board Members through 12/31/2017 Marcie Brook Faye Cohen Joni Kaiser Erol Amon (open)
