The Golden Gate Bird Alliance Board of Directors includes a Nominating Committee, which nominates persons to stand for election to the Board of Directors each year. The election is typically held in May and/or June of each year. If you have an interest in joining the Board, we urge you to contact either the President of the Board (Alan Harper) or the Chair of the Nominating Commitee (Karim Al-Khafaji) so you can be considered by the Nominating Committee. Alan and Karim can be reached by calling the GGBA office and leaving a message – 510.843.2222. We’ll get back to you!

In addition, current Supporting Members of Golden Gate Bird Alliance may also nominate persons to stand for election to the Board by petition. To do so, members must deliver a petition making the nomination to the President of the Board (Alan Harper) or the current Chair of the Nominating Commitee (Karim Al-Khafaji) at least 12 weeks before the election (for 2016, this date is April 7, 2016).   The petition must be signed by at least 100 supporting members in good standing. The signatures must have been gathered no earlier than August 1, 2015.   The petition must be accompanied by the written agreement of the candidate to serve.
