<br>
If nothing else, take this as a reminder to keep your OSMF membership up-to-date, as well as your membership in the OSM-US chapter (or whichever local chapter is relevant to you!)<br>
<br>
Remember, we not only have to recruit candidates to run for office, but we have to be members in order to vote for them!<br>
