Lexington, Ky.—Aug. 23, 2021—The USHJA has extended the member nomination period to September 15 for open Director-At-Large seats to the Board of Directors for two Athletes (one Hunter and one Jumper) and one Affiliate Council Member.

Nominations for the Zone Council seat on the Board of Directors will open after new Zone Committee Chairs and Vice Chairs are confirmed at the September 7 USHJA Executive Committee meeting and will also have a nomination deadline of September 15.

Senior Active or Senior Associate members in good standing are eligible to participate in the nomination process.

Elections to the USHJA Board of Directors are voted on by Board members based on input from USHJA membership through the nomination process. Members may nominate a single individual for multiple positions, and they may nominate themselves for any available position. After careful review of all nominees, the Nominating Committee will conduct interviews and recommend two individuals for each position on the Board of Directors.
