IAS Board of Directors Election Process is Near

Aug 01, 2024


The IAS Board election process is near. There will be three board elections this fall. Tim Burrack is from the Manchester/Winthrop/Independence area, Ryan Collins is from the Waukon/Monona/Elkader area, and Adam Hill is from the Ellsworth/Williams/Alden area. We will need to complete the slate of candidates by October 1, 2024. 

The nominating committee members are President Randy Blake from the Andrew area, Paul Cook from the Hubbard area, and Stan Norman from the Union area. 

IAS will consider members who live in the general geography of the incumbent board members. If you have interest and have questions, you are welcome to call Chairman Randy Blake, any of the IAS nominating committee members, other board members, or IAS CEO, Ken Smith. Your location staff can also help to get you started. IAS welcomes and encourages members to consider running for the board.
