VPMA Board Nominations Now Open!
Do you have something to offer the VPMA Board?
Could You Be VPMA’s Next Board Member?
You don't have to be a longtime VPMA volunteer to have something valuable to contribute.
The 2026 VPMA Call for Board Nominations is open, and we're looking for members who are ready to bring their experience, perspective and ideas to the leadership of the Association.
This year, three Director seats, three Regional Director seats (NOVA, Central VA, and SW Virginia), and all Officer positions are subject to election. Several current Board members will seek re-election—but there is room for new voices, too. The initial slate of nominations will be distributed on September 24, 2026, with the final slate and election ballot going out to all eligible voting members on October 12, 2026.
Who are we looking for?
VPMA members who are willing to:
- Be engaged in the future of the Association
- Share ideas and industry experience
- Represent the needs and perspectives of Virginia's pest management professionals
- Participate actively in Board meetings and Association initiatives
You can nominate yourself. In fact, we hope you will.
The Nominations Committee begins reviewing candidates in early September, so don't wait until the deadline to express your interest.
Questions about what Board service involves? Contact John Reid, Nominations Committee Chair, President Shannon Harlow-Ellis, Executive Director Andrea Coron, or any member of the Nominations Committee.
Your experience can help shape VPMA's future.

Immediate Past President and Chair, Nominations Committee
