The Press of Long Island will hold its annual board election on June 15 by email because of the coronavirus pandemic. Normally, it is held in person at the Media Awards Dinner, but that dinner has been canceled this year.
The entire current Board of Directors is up for re-election. Scott Brinton, the current president, will complete his three-year tenure in the post in June, after which he plans to remain on the board.
Other directors up for election include:
J.D. Allen
Jeff Bessen
Bill Bleyer
Diana DeRosa
Cecilia Dowd
David North
Brendan O’Reilly
Chris Vaccaro
The Press Club invites applications from PCLI members interested in running for the board. Send a statement of interest and resume to Diana DeRosa, the current PCLI secretary, at dderosa1@optonline.net by June 1.
According to our recently enacted bylaws changes, the duly elected board will decide on officers after the June vote.
