Committees

Committees are populated annually at the spring meeting. There are four standing committees of the Board that reflect the Board’s fiduciary responsibilities—executive, nominating, finance, and legal. The executive committee meets monthly to provide direction to the Executive Director on the association’s operations. The finance, nominating, and legal committee meetings are called as needed throughout the year.

Composition of the Board

The board’s composition includes 22 - 25 directors: one (1) Director from each of the nine (9) Wyoming Judicial Districts as designated by the State (see Exhibit A), for a total of nine (9) Directors, and six (6) Directors selected from six (6) United States geographic regions—Northeast, Southeast, Far West, Southwest, Colorado, and the Neighboring States Region (defined as Idaho, Nebraska, Montana, North and South Dakota, and Utah) (see Exhibit B). In addition, the Board of Directors will appoint one (1) Young Alumni at-large director and may appoint from three to up to six (at the discretion of the UWAA board) additional at-large positions.The Young Alumni director must be thirty years of age or younger at the time of appointment. However, in no case will the number of out-of-state directors exceed the number of directors residing in Wyoming.
