El Capitan, Jennifer Butzke
* Prior to 1995 members elected a two-year term President and Vice-President in the same year. A change in By Laws in 1995 provided for the office of President-Elect, who serves one year on the Board of Directors and then assumes the office of President for one year.
† In 2007 it was determined that a one-year term did not allow the executive board time to get programs in place, so the practice of electing a President and Vice President for staggered two-year terms was once again put to a membership vote and passed, restoring the 2-year term election format in 2008.
‡ In 2016 the Constitution was amended** by majority vote of the membership changing officers and directors taking office at the Annual Meeting following the election, to having officers and directors take office on January 1st following the election. This was required as the Annual Meeting date was moved from March each year to a later September or October date to coincide with the Annual Retiree Rendezvous, which would have delayed installation of a new Board.
** Constitution, Article VI, Section 2. Board of Directors, As amended January 1, 2016. Officers and Directors shall be elected at large by the voting members. The Officers and Directors shall serve for two years beginning immediately after their installation on January 1st following their election. The President and Secretary shall take office in odd numbered years and the Vice President and Treasurer shall take office in even numbered years. Four Directors shall be take office in odd years and three Directors in even numbered years.
