      Hello Eagles,

      As you may be aware, it’s getting to be that time of year again…elections are almost upon us! Some important information and dates are below. Apologies for the wall of text, but lots to announce here.

      Important Dates:

      May 18 – June 3, midnight ST: Nominations! Kinnies may self-nominate or 2 other Eagles can nominate, at which time the nominee can choose if they would like to accept the nomination. To nominate yourself or another kinnie, check to see if you qualify (details below) and speak with a council officer (Aglar, Ame, or Luri) or send an email to officers@eaglesofthorondor.com.

      June 5 – June 15, midnight ST: Campaigning! Candidates will communicate their ideas and vision for the kinship using the forums or kinmail (sent by current council officers). Candidates will also answer questions from kinnies using tells or in-game mail.

      June 17 – June 23: Voting! Voting will take place in the forums as usual. In order to vote, you must be registered to the forums. If you’re uncomfortable using your real email, you can use a disposable address (try https://mailinator.com/).

      June 25: Inauguration Day! Come celebrate at the party kinhouse (2 Chalk, Falgo’s Delf, Shire Homestead) and welcome your new officers.
