Block 3 Member David R. Pickering announced in a May 15 message and statements of interest and qualifications that he will seek election to the HCA Board of Directors. Block 1 Member Thomas Drake also confirmed in a May 18 message that he too will be a candidate for Director and provided statements of interest and qualifications. In addition, Director Madeline Cohen announced at the May 18 monthly Board meeting that she is resigning her unexpired 2014-17 term, and Director Ashley and Secretary Poss indicated they would seek re-election. Although an election for three Director terms was previously announced, the election will now be for three 2016-19 full terms, and for the remainder of one 2014-17 unexpired term, at the 2016 HCA Annual Meeting on the morning of Saturday, May 21, 2016, at the Lake Anne Reston Community Center. Please note that the meeting packet cover letter dated April 29 incorrectly stated that the May 21 election was for only two Directors. HCA encourages all Members in good standing to participate.
