**Officers are elected annually by the Board of Trustees from its membership, taking office in August of each year.

Cherokee Triangle Association Board of Trustees Election Process

Six trustee seats are elected to the Board of the Cherokee Triangle Association (CTA) each year. Each trustee shall serve a 3-year term and can serve two terms. Current or Lifetime dues-paying members of the CTA are eligible. Members are encouraged to attend at least one Board meeting prior to submitting an application.

 

If there are more applications than open seats, applicants will be listed on a ballot that will be mailed to each dues-paying association member’s household. The ballot will have instructions on how to return it. Ballots will be counted at the May CTA meeting. Newly-elected trustees are expected to attend the June meeting and will take their seats at the August meeting. Vacancies that arise between elections are filled by the Board of Trustees from it’s membership.


Basic Board Responsibilities

Board meetings are held at Collegiate School from 6:00-7:30p.m. on the third Monday of each month, except July and December (or otherwise mentioned).  Trustees are encouraged to attend all meetings.  If a trustee needs to miss a meeting, the trustee should notify the Board secretary as soon as possible.  Three consecutive unexcused absences warrant dismissal from the Board.

 

Trustees are expected to serve on various committees and are encouraged to chair one of the committees, which include:

Our main fundraiser is the annual Cherokee Triangle Art Fair, which is always held the weekend before Derby. Additionally, we sponsor other neighborhood activities, including the summer Willow Park Concert Series, the annual Membership Cocktail Party (hosted in a member’s home), the Fall Family Festival, and a Winter Potluck Dinner. Trustees are expected to participate in these events.
