Record Voting for ACDA Elections

Online voting has led to the highest percentage of ACDA voting on record in the recently concluded election. In the election for ACDA President Elect Designate, Karen Fulmer was chosen by the ACDA membership for this leadership position. Karen's choral music education and performance career has been focused in the area of middle school and high school choral music teaching.

Also on the ballot were three Bylaw amendment changes, which passed overwhelmingly.Those bylaw changes reassign the Chair of the ACDA Membership Committee from President Elect to the Chair of the Past Presidents' Council; change the phrase "voting by mail" to include "voting by electronic means"; and change the name of the "Children's Choirs" Repertoire & Standards area to "Children and Youth Community Choirs."

In the four ACDA Division presidential elections, Brent Ballweg was elected president in the Southwestern Division, Robert Duff in the Eastern Division, Mary Kay Geston in the North Central Division, and Gary Weidenaar in the Northwestern Division.
