It is again time to embark upon the process of choosing the future leadership of the Officer Section of the South Carolina State Firefighters’ Association. These positions will be elected by you, Officers Section members.

The nomination period for Officer Section leadership was open February 6 through March 12, 2025. Uncontested nominations were received for 1st Vice Chair and Treasurer.

Based on the Section bylaws, the uncontested positions do not require an election. However, more than one nomination was received for 2nd Vice Chair and Secretary, mandating a vote from the Section.

2nd Vice Chair
• Haley Langford – Jasper County
• Richard Alex Long – South Spartanburg

Treasurer
• Jeremy King – South Greenville
• Christian "Blake" Schultz - Long Cane Fire

Elections are anticipated to occur in May. Section members will be notified of the election period after approval from the Elections Committee. The voting instrument will be completed through an individual link emailed to the Section membership with the email we have on file. Staff will also post a notification on the Officers Section Facebook group page and general Association page as well as include it in other communications from the Association.
