2023 Audi Club Board of Directors Election Results

The results are in and have been certified for Audi Club North America’s 2023 election. This year, three candidates vied for three open positions on the Audi Club Board of Directors (BoD) for the 2024-2026 term. We want to thank our valued Audi Club members for participating in the election by casting their vote.

We’re excited to announce the results:

Darren Dowdy (Elected) – Audi Club Eastern Canada Chapter

Carson Heter (Elected) – Audi Club Florida Chapter

Melisa Wilcox (Re-Elected) – Audi Club Florida Chapter

We welcome Darren Dowdy and Carson Heter and welcome back Melisa Wilcox to the 2024-2026 Board of Directors!

Each year, three of the nine Audi Club Board of Directors positions are open for election. The full nine-member board will meet for the first time in January 2023 in order to select their executive officers for a one-year term. They will also be invited by the current board of directors to sit in on the final board meeting of the year on December 20, 2023.

We are excited to continue our work with Melisa on the Board, and to welcome Darren and Carson, who I know will help propel us forward. We very much appreciate all their efforts to help Audi Club and look forward to working with them next year! – Ryan Compton, 2023 Board President

I firmly believe that the quality of an organization can be measured by the people who join it, and in particular serve in its leadership. Audi Club North America is privileged to welcome Darren and Carson and welcome back Melisa to serve in the ranks of National Board Leadership. I’d like to extend my sincerest thanks to each of those who stepped up to run for office and to congratulate our three new board members. – George Achorn, Executive Director

Darren and Carson will be joining existing board members Mayur Bhatia (Golden Gate), Ryan Compton (Potomac), Byron DeJesus (Glacier Lakes), Tom Mullane (Northeast), Dave Pecoraro (Utah), Brian Scotto (Southern California), and Melisa Wilcox (Florida).

The voting period ran from October 15, 2023 through November 15, 2023 and the results were certified by Bank Five Nine, Oconomowoc, WI.
