Congregation Ahavath Beth Israel will hold its annual meeting on
Monday, June 13, 2022, at 7 p.m., in the CABI Social Hall. 

HOW TO VOTE
Eligible CABI members may vote to accept the proposed slate of trustees at meeting or by proxy. Information about voter eligibility requirements can be found in the voter registration form. By completing the electronic proxy form, you will designate a Board Trustee or other designee to vote on your behalf at the meeting.  

We will be approving our new slate of trustees (below) and our 2022-2023 budget.

It is essential that we have enough participants to vote on our slate and our budget. Per a bylaws change last year, all members of your household who are eligible to vote at the annual meeting must register to vote. 

You may access the voter registration form here.


Fortunately, it is possible to vote without attending in person. If you cannot attend the meeting in person, please complete the proxy form.

Please follow this link to the proxy form.

Both the voter registration form (EVEN IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON ATTEND THE MEETING IN PERSON) and the proxy form must be completed by Sunday, June 12. If you need assistance, please contact Kat at 208-343-6601.

Biographies of the proposed new members of the Board are available on our website and directly here.
