2020 Board of Directors Nominations Needed

Two Board of Directors Seats will need to be elected at our February 8, 2020 Annual Membership Meeting at the DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Myrtle Beach Oceanfront, Myrtle Beach, SC.

The board terms for Seat 4 served by Billy Walker, Walker & Walker Logging, LLC, Laurens and Seat 5 served by Donnie Lambert, Leo Lambert Logging, Inc., Georgetown, will expire December 31, 2019.

Board member elections will be conducted during the Member Business Session of the Membership Meeting convening at noon on Saturday, February 8, 2020.

Board members serve four-year terms. Board responsibilities are to establish policies, direct legislative advocacy, guide programs and efforts to improve and benefit the timber harvesting industry, oversee association fiscal responsibilities and charge association staff to fulfill the association’s duties and daily functions.

Board members are responsible to attend board meetings and local district meetings. Plus, promote professional timber harvesting in SC, seek SCTPA members, represent the association at events where needed and promote the association. One board meeting is conducted at the annual meeting with bimonthly meetings held in Columbia beginning at the end of February or early March.

Any member solely and directly engaged in the logging business and in good standing with paid dues as of December 31, 2019, may be nominated for any of the upcoming seats regardless if current board member has indicated running for re-election. Any member regardless of location is eligible for nomination. Logger members are encouraged to enter your name or the name of another logger member as an eligible candidate.

To enter your name for nomination or to nominate someone else, please contact the Nominations Committee or SCTPA office no later than January 18, 2020.

Thanks for your assistance in this important association process.
