Nominations Open May 28th

Hello Kanar members!

We are all struggling in the wake of the pandemic, but even in these troubled times some internal cogs of our club keep turning. With July (and the July Board of Directors meeting) on the horizon, nominations are opening once again.

Three director seats will be open for nominations in this cycle: Treasurer (open again due to no nominations), Secretary, and Odd Year Representative. Nominations for these open seats will begin on next Thursday, May 28th, 2020.

I would like to take a moment to announce that I will not be running for reelection as KGE's Secretary. I am thankful for my time on the Board of Directors and the work done to help Kanar as a whole, but as we grow and evolve in this crucible of history I am consistently finding my personal and work-related responsibilities taking priority over the position's needs. It's time to pass on the torch of administration to someone new, and it's my hope that a member of our talented membership will step up to the task. Thank you to everyone for the help and support that has been given over these last three years.


Members wishing to be nominated for these open positions must meet the following general requirements:

  • Currently hold Veteran Membership status with KGE (meaning you've been playing and paying dues for more than two years)

  • Not have been released from any position with KGE due to disciplinary action in the last five years.

  • Have a working phone number

  • Have a working email address and access to email on a daily basis

  • Have a valid mailing address

  • Have a valid photo identification card recognized by the US government

In addition to these general requirements, the Treasurer and Secretary positions work with a number of forms, files, and people to ensure that Kanar events run smoothly and so that we can continue to make improvements to our game and lands. Experience with accounting and administration practices respectively are highly recommended.

Nominations for the open Board seats can be sent to secretary@kanar.club or the Board as a whole at bod@kanar.club Thank you again, and adventure well, Jacob Smith Corporate Secretary
