The Stewards

The Stewards are the nine-member executive body of the Free Spirit Connection, its main responsibility being oversight of the Connection's finances, especially its unrestricted Endowment. Candidates for Steward are nominated by petition, with each petition requiring the names of ten people who are either current Local Gathering Council members or former Stewards, and no individual may endorse more than one candidate per election period. After the entire body has been elected by the Triennial Assembly, three officers are chosen by and from its membership:
# Moderator - chairs all meetings of the Stewards, serves as chief spokesperson for the Connection, and moderates the next Triennial Assembly.
# Clerk - maintains all records and serves as parliamentarian.
# Treasurer - administers the Connection's Endowment and finances.
Other positions may include a liaison for unaffiliated members of the Connection, chairs of various committees, and leaders of special projects.
