During the Presidential year, the person presides over the Board meetings, is expected to play an active role in the development of the Annual Conference and with issues of importance to the Association that may arise during that year.

The immediate Past President serves of the Executive Board, is responsible for that year’s election process, and hosts the Past Presidents’ Breakfast on the Friday morning of the Conference. As an experienced member of the Board, the Past-President is expected to continue to show leadership in decision-making and to actively participate on critical committees.
