The Directors Emeriti are those former Directors that have served ADGA representing their respective Districts over several terms. The Board of Directors receive nominees from the Awards Committee for the title of Director Emeritus/Emerita and, on the basis of long and valued service to ADGA, may bestow this title. Directors Emeriti may deliberate with the Directors but shall not make motions, second motions or vote.
