Online Voting

Hello GHEA membership! Beginning today (Monday 4-21) and running through Friday 4-25 at 4 pm, you are requested to cast one vote using the online voting instructions. *We appreciate your willingness to do so and this will only take 30 seconds of your time.

Please look below and follow the directions to vote.

The only question you are asked is this:

May an amendment be made to the GHEA Bylaws to change the terms of Officers and Association Representatives? (The terms would be changed to run from Sept. 1 through Aug. 31 instead of the current terms which run Jan. 1 through Dec. 31)
