K3S Secretary
The secretary of K3S takes care of the running of K3S and the organisation of meetings. The secretary is always "elected" on the First Wednesday from among the volunteers. The form of election is by agreement among the volunteers. The Secretary holds office for 1 month until the following First Wednesday. The office of Secretary may be held for more than one consecutive term if desired. Due to the prospective nature of the position and the not inconsiderable financial remuneration, no replacement is foreseen and therefore this situation is not addressed in any way. The duties of the Secretary are listed below.
