Nominations may be made by e-mailing dfelection@dragonflight.org. You must be a current member to nominate and the nominee must also be a current member. You may nominate yourself.  Nominations are due by 5 pm on 15 August 2017. The election will be held at the Dragonflight convention, 25-27 August, 2017.

A candidate cannot run for both.

Each seat will be filled by the candidate receiving the most votes for that position. All results will be certified by the Board of Directors at the October 2017 Board Meeting.
