The ACWA Region 5 Nominating Committee is looking for ACWA members who are interested in leading the direction of ACWA Region 5 for the 2025-2026 term. The Nominating Committee is currently seeking candidates for the Region 5 Board, which is comprised of Chair, Vice Chair and up to five Board member positions.
District 1 Director John L. Varela is currently serving on the Region 5 Board as Chair, and he has indicated that he is interested in continuing his service as Vice Chair.
The leadership of ACWA's 10 geographical regions is integral to the leadership of ACWA. The members of the Region 5 Board determine the direction and focus of region issues and activities. Additionally, they support the fulfillment of ACWA's goals on behalf of members and serve a key role in ACWA's grassroots outreach efforts.
