Call for Nominations – CREW DC 2025 Board of Directors
As part of CREW DC’s governance process, some Board seats turn over each year. Board positions are held in two-year terms except for President-Elect, President, and Immediate Past President, which entails a three-year commitment. Staggered terms of Board service balance renewal with continuity and are a best practice among volunteer-led associations.
The Board plays a vital strategic role as we continue pursuing CREW DC’s goals, including creating engagement opportunities for our members, providing business networking and connections, continuing our commitment to diversity, and creating an inclusive environment within our organization, and the industry.
Nominations are now being accepted for the open Board positions listed below.
President-Elect 2025 – (also Network Delegate in 2025)

Board Service is limited to CREW DC Members only. Only 2024 CREW DC Members may make nominations. Self-nominations are encouraged. Multiple nominations may be submitted on each nomination form. Multiple individuals may be nominated for any position.
Chaired by the Immediate Past President, a Nominating Committee reviews the qualifications of each nominee and prepares a slate containing one name for each position to be elected. The slate is presented to Membership for a vote in late August/early September 2024.
Members making nominations do not have to verify the willingness of the individual to serve. After staff confirms the willingness of the individual to apply and serve, an application will be due no later than July 15, 2024.
Nominations close on July 3, 2024.
We encourage Members to nominate NOW so that nominees will have ample time to submit the application on or before the deadline.
All related documents are posted to the CREW DC website HERE, on the Board of Directors page.
