The WPI Board of Directors is an appointed group of Voting WPI Members. There is no term limit on Board members, and Board members can only be removed or replaced by the Board itself.
While some LARP Organizations have Boards which are elected by their membership, our experience shows that a self-selected Board leads to a more stable, more accountable club.

The WPI Ombudsman provides options for members with concerns or suggestions, including those who wish to remain anonymous by representing membership concerns to the board when needed.
The Ombudsman position is currently vacant, and we will be reconstructing it as a club position likely not on the board of directors. We currently recommend contacting your Chapter Owner for club issues, or the board of directors at board@windingpath.club
