The Drag Racing Association of Women invites applications for six open Board of Trustees seats, with submissions due by November 8, 2026. The roles shape strategy and delivery across the charity’s programs.

Trustees serve two-year terms and provide governance, oversight, and direction. The board sets priorities, steers budgets, and ensures programs meet the organization’s mission to support women in drag racing.

DRAW targets candidates with expertise in legal affairs, finance, management, administration, marketing, and public relations to strengthen its operational and outreach capability.

Applicants must be active members of DRAW. Attendance at every national event is not mandatory, but trustees are expected to contribute consistently to governance, planning, and stakeholder engagement.

Applications are available on the DRAW website, with a supporting Trustee Fact Sheet outlining responsibilities and expectations. Completed forms must be submitted by the deadline for consideration.

Beyond core oversight, the board coordinates fundraising, awareness campaigns, and program delivery. The objective is consistent: expand access, resources, and recognition for women competing in a traditionally male-dominated arena.

DRAW’s impact extends across the paddock and into local communities through charitable initiatives. That work has mirrored the sport’s broader momentum, highlighted recently by events such as the Cecil Chesapeake Fall Classic.

Success in the role depends on collaboration and a clear grasp of governance. Trustees work as a unit, balancing operational needs with long-term planning and transparent stewardship of donor support.

Participation also offers valuable networking across the racing ecosystem. Recent coverage, from the Racer of the Month spotlight to Andy Robinson’s 10th title and PDRA titles, reflects a landscape of sustained progress.

For committed candidates with relevant skills, a seat on the Board of Trustees provides a direct route to shape DRAW’s next phase and help deliver enduring opportunities for women racers.
