[CUCBC Contacts] Election for the CULRC Hon: Secretary 2010-11

[Chris Kerr]

Nominations for the post of CULRC Honorary secretary 2010-11 are now 
open. While nominations can be received until immediately before the 
vote (more on this below), candidates are encouraged to send manifestos 
to the returning officer, Alistair Chappelle (president at culrc.org), in 
advance (preferably by 6pm on Friday 16th April) so they can be 
distributed to the electorate.

The CULRC Hon: Sec: is a dual CUCBC/CULRC role and responsibilities include:
* Enforcing the CUCBC Safety Regulations and Rules of the River
* Umpiring in and helping in the organisation of CUCBC events
* Taking minutes at the termly CULRC Executive Committee meetings
* Administrative work for CULRC such as ordering rowing kit and 
collecting payment

The position is open to any student who is a member of a college boat 
club - there is no requirement to have rowed or coxed for CULRC. 
However, the electorate consists entirely of past CULRC crews (unlike 
the CUBC and CUWBC secretaries, who are elected by college captains) so 
you should bear this in mind when writing your manifesto.

The CULRC constitution stipulates that the election for Hon: Sec: can 
happen at any time after the election for CULRC President. If there is 
more than one candidate for President, the vote will take place on 
Wednesday 21st April at 6pm in Robinson College, with the vote for 
Secretary happening immediately after. If there is only one candidate 
for President then the Hon: Sec: vote will take place electronically.
