DiSTRICT 214 CANDIDATES
District 214 Leadership Nominations Announced — District Council to Elect Inaugural Leadership Team
The District Leadership Committee (DLC) has officially announced the nominated candidates for the 2026–2027 leadership team of the newly forming District 214. We congratulate each nominee for stepping forward to serve during this historic moment as District 44 and District 63 unite to form District 214. District leadership requires dedication, service, and a strong commitment to advancing the growth and success of our members and clubs.
The District Council will elect the inaugural District 214 leadership team during the upcoming Joint District Business Meeting on April 20, 2026 at 7:00 PM Eastern. Members of the District Council, the DEC (District Executive Committee), and each club in good standing represented by two voting members, the Club President and Vice President of Education, must be present to vote. Because several leadership roles include contested races, participation from voting members is especially important. The leaders elected at this meeting will help guide the district through its first program year and shape the future of District 214.
