Nomination details are included below. If you have questions, please 
contact us at info at arin.net <mailto:info at arin.net>.

Board members Paul Andersen and Aaron Hughes will conclude their current 
three-year terms on 31 December 2015.

Advisory Council representatives Dan Alexander, David Huberman, Heather 
Schiller, Robert Seastrom, and John Springer will conclude their current 
terms on 31 December 2015.

New Board and Advisory Council terms begin 1 January 2016. ARIN Board 
and Advisory Council incumbents may be re-elected for consecutive terms.

The Board of Trustees and Advisory Council elections have a Nomination 
Committee (NomCom) that is responsible for identifying, recruiting, and 
certifying a properly selected slate of candidates to be placed in 
nomination before the membership for election. This year's NomCom 
members are Board of Trustee members Timothy Denton (NomCom Chair) and 
Bill Woodcock and general member volunteers Bram Abramson, Kevin 
Blumberg, Martin Hannigan, Steve Middleton, and Tina Morris.

Now is also a good time for member organizations to check to make 
certain that they have a Voting Contact eligible to vote in the upcoming 
election before the voter eligibility deadline of 24 August. Direct any 
questions to info at arin.net <mailto:info at arin.net>.
