The Elections Officer is a short term appointment by the
board.

The Elections Officer should be a member who will not be running
in the coming election.

The 4 officers that are elected are President, Vice President,
Treasurer and Secretary.

We also elect Board Members. The number of Board Members can
vary but there's an upper and lower limit which is set in the
bylaws.

The 4 officers are automatically board members.

The other positions (Training Coordinator, Membership
Coordinator, Equipment Coordinator, Preplan Committee Chair, etc.)
are not elected. They are appointed by the board, usually at the
first board meeting after the elections. The rationale is that the
board needs to be able to change these appointments when someone is
no longer able to carry it on, perhaps mid-term, such as when I
resigned as Training Coordinator and you took it on.

You don't have to be a board member to take on one of these
appointments or vice versa.

[[TaskDescriptions]] lists some of the
positions.
