SAFE Board Elections - Polls Open Today!

SAFE is proud to present four candidates to choose from for the 2014 elections to your board of directors.

 

Every year, three director positions are filled through a voting process by the organization's membership. Candidates were solicited, interviewed, and asked for their responses to questions by members of the SAFE Governance Committee. Their responses serve as an introduction of the candidates to SAFE members. Please review their interview responses available on the SAFE website.

 

Now it is your turn to speak. You should have received an email link to our electronic polling place where you can vote for three candidates of your choice. You may only vote for each candidate once

 

If you did not receive an invitation to vote or are experiencing challenges in the voting process contact SAFE Chair John Dorcey.

 

Polls open at 12:00 pm (noon) CDT on May 12th and remain open until 12:00 p.m. on May 26th. We encourage you to become actively engaged in your organization's governance - VOTE TODAY!

 

Additional information will be available on SAFE's Facebook page as well as through our Twitter feed @SAFEPilots.


SAFE Membership Campaign

 

HOW TO BECOME A PRIZE WINNER ON JULY 31st

 

by Sherry Rossiter, Membership Committee Chair

 

"Each One, Bring One" is the theme of the 2014 SAFE Membership Campaign, which kicked off on February 1st. Current members participating in this campaign will have their names entered into a special drawing to be held on July 31st at the SAFE dinner-meeting during AirVenture 2014. You do not need to be present to win, but you do need to sponsor and/or refer one new member.

 

The three prizes to be awarded are an SP-400 handheld NAV/COM aviation radio donated by Sporty's Pilot Shop, an A20 aviation headset with Bluetooth (twin plug, GA configuration) donated by Bose, and a $400 gift certificate donated by King Schools to be used for training materials of the winner's choice.  

 

In addition to the participating member's name being entered into the July 31st drawing, every SAFE member who recruits or sponsors a new member will receive a $5 Starbucks e-gift card immediately after the new membership fee is paid. The e-gift card will be sent via email and will say "Starbucks" in the subject line, so please download and print out the gift card when it arrives in your inbox.

 

During this recruitment campaign, each SAFE member is asked to recruit one new member into the organization between February 1 and July 31, 2014. The more members you bring into SAFE, the faster SAFE will grow AND the more times your name will be entered into the special drawing at the end of this campaign. The recruiter's or sponsor's name must be shown on the membership application for participation in the drawing. Members can participate by recruiting a new member, who would pay his or her own membership dues, or by purchasing a gift membership for a new member. To date, the majority of new members gained during this recruitment campaign have been gift memberships.

 

To learn more about how you can participate in this campaign, please visit http://www.safepilots.org/join-safe/ to complete a gift membership application. Please note that where the membership application asks who referred the member, you should put your own name. Then put the new member's name and address in the area that asks for Shipping Information.

 

If you'd like to email a potential member a copy of SAFE's membership brochure, the latest brochure can be found at  http://www.safepilots.org/documents/SAFE_brochure.pdf
