Dear ASA members,</div>

The ASA Time Domain Astronomy Chapter is currently accepting nominations for its steering committee. We are looking to fill one slot designated for an HDR (a one-year term), one slot designated for an Early Career member (a two-year term), and multiple slots
open to all members of our chapter (also two-year terms). </div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: Aptos, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">

I will be moving into the role of immediate past chair; since I am not participating in the election, I can act as returning officer. Therefore, if you are interested in running for membership of the steering committee, in any of these roles, please let me
know via e-mail (b.montet@unsw.edu.au) by COB Friday, 10 July. If we have more nominees than slots available, we will hold an election. </div>

A nomination need only be a 2-3 sentence statement of interest, with the subject line "TDA Steering Committee Nomination." Self-nominations are encouraged!</div>
