NSS-CDS Board of Directors 2025

[Capt Jim Wyatt]

There will be a couple of seats open on the NSS-CDS Board of Directors this coming spring.

The only requirement is that you have to have been a NSS-CDS member for a year. Nominations must be in not later than February 24, 2024. Anyone interested in running should DM me here or e-mail kjessop@bellsouth.net.

This is a great way to give BACK to the cave diving community.

 

[The Chairman]

Which ones are open, Jim???

 

[Capt Jim Wyatt]

Bumping this. This year (2025) candidates must be a member of the NSS AND the CDS in order to qualify.

 

[The Chairman]

What's open, Jim? Is there a link to who is running and what their platforms are?

 

[Capt Jim Wyatt]

The list of directors and the seats that are open can be seen at: NSS-CDS Board of Directors and Staff - NSS CDS

There is not a list of who is running yet. We are at this point simply seeking qualified candidates.
