Forms You Need
Every year at this time we provide a packet of very important material relating to election of officers of the Association, MASC award nominations, volunteers to serve on MASC Committees, and resolutions for our Delegate Assembly in November. This is your chance to offer a nomination, propose a resolution, volunteer to serve, nominate a student for scholarship, or run for an MASC office. You may duplicate these forms if you wish to make multiple nominations in any category.
