Please consider running for one of the 45 House of Delegates seat vacancies.
There are enough members in our section to fill each HOD vacancy and we would strongly encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to play a direct role in the future direction of the OSB. The time commitment is minimal and the HOD Annual Meeting (where voting on resolutions takes place) is not just interesting, but a lot of fun too.
Among other powers, members of the House of Delegates have the power to direct the Board of Governors as to future action and to modify or rescind an action or decision of the Board of Governors. The Board of Governors is bound by the decisions of the House of Delegates. See ORS 9.139 here: http://www.leg.state.or.us/ors/009.html
