Sincere thanks for your willingness to serve the POD Network! Please see more details about POD's Core Committee members here: www.podnetwork.org/about/core.htm
Any POD member who wishes to become more involved in POD is encouraged to consider joining a committee. Please see full list, current as of April 2010, of committees and contacts here: www.podnetwork.org/about/committees.htm
Each fall, at the annual conference, the Core Committee holds a presidential election where up to three eligible candidates are considered. To be eligible for election, one must have served a term on Core but not have been off Core more than five years. At our fall 2009 conference, Phyllis Worthy Dawkins was elected as our next President Elect. Phyllis will become President at the conclusion of the spring Core Committee meeting in March 2011.
The Core Committee functions as the board of directors for POD. Core Committee members are elected each year by the POD membership. The call for self-nominations is issued to the entire membership each fall. Anyone who has been a member of POD for three or more years is eligible. Core Committee members serve for three years.
