    Arch Reactor Board of Directors 2021 Election

    Posted on Wednesday, Jan 6th, 2021

    Arch Reactor holds annual elections for the board around this time.  Like most things in life right now, we are in need of making some adjustments. The board, along with several active members' input, have unanimously decided there is not a practical way to hold elections as they are traditionally conducted this year.  As those of you who attended the virtual business meeting tonight already know, we have put in a lot of work to come up with a process that will allow us to hold elections online this year in a practical fashion.  We do take our commitment to our bylaws seriously.  However,  we feel this is the best option and it is better than not holding elections or asking our members to do multiple votes over an extended timeframe and managing that process.

     

    The 2021 election process will move forward as documented below:

    Nominations for Board Positions

    • Nomination's start tonight and run until January 18th.

    • Current nominees can be viewed from this spreadsheet:

    Sewing Update!

    Sewing Cabinet
    Sewing Machine Cabinet - Closed

     

    Big update for anyone hoping to sew at Arch Reactor, our machine is back from it's clearning/calibration!    Back in September, Arch Reactor was able to purchase a vintage Elna Special machine with its original cabinet.   AR had been borrowing a similar machine from one of our members for a few years and now we have our own.   The cabinet has been in our Classroom for a while with a loaner-machine, but our own machine is back from its professional cleaning and calibration.

    About Our Hackerspace

    Arch Reactor was founded in 2009 by a group of friends who liked technology, programming, making, and pizza. Now St. Louis' largest hackerspace, Arch Reactor's growing membership continues to bring new skills, projects, equipment, and people to one place.

    For a deeper understanding of what we're about, you should check out our explanation of hackerspaces, perhaps read about one of our members' projects, or (best of all) come meet us in person at the next open event!
