Representative
E le ctio n
Board
S ta ff
Now that the elections are over for this
year things can almost return to normal,
however that may be. We have received 9
ballots since the polls closed. The last one
received was in March.
The phones have not been ringing off the
hooks with Tribal members wishing to serve on
the Election Board and especially the Staff
Representative position. All it takes is a phone
call, and the rest will be an interesting
experience coupled with a lot of fun, meeting
and talking with many good Tribal members all
over the continental United States and
elsewhere, maybe even in Siletz.
In all seriousness we need Tribal
members to apply for this all important Board,
ft is so very important, I believe, that all
Members vote in the elections. Sometimes one
vote will make all the difference in the world.
Each vote counts. In just a very short time, we
will be gearing up for the next Council Election.
Time whizes by so very fast. As the old saying
goes, "Enjoy yourself, it is later than you
think".
The point is, get involved, apply for a
position on the Election Board.
