[APAC-Discuss] APRALO Elections 2016

[Holly Raiche]

Thank you all for a really good discussion.

Yes, there must be a call for nominations.  And absolutely yes, we need volunteers and change.  That said, we also need a process - mentorship - so that more people can gain the kind of experience that makes us all effective in the role.  So for those who are putting themselves forward - terrific.
