2014 The Future Maquis -- Rebuilding With You, For You!
Your Vote Is Appreciated
What is the Future Maquis? It is a campaign dream - a promise made by a talented group of individuals who have been dedicated to the principles and beliefs of Maquis Forces International. We have all had several years in the middle and upper management in MFI and promise to bring you the continued fun and supportive fandom environment; while paving the way for more opportunities as we continue our journey to offer more to you, the Maquis members, who help make this organization fun and exciting!
What does The Future Maquis have in store? Our very special group within MFI have sworn to devote time, energy, thought and devotion to the maintenance of the site, and we are proud to serve you. We hope that we can not only continue serving you in the ways that are familiar in our regular activities, such as the Mirror Mirror Day, Memorial Day Defensive, Labor Day Offensive and other special events and role-play; but that we may find new and interesting ways to serve you in creating new opportunities and events with you - our members - in mind. Plans are in motion to offer more divisions to serve within the branches of the Maquis Forces, as well as more opportunities for those members who wish to remain civilians within the Maquis. We hope you will come to us with your own thoughts and ideas in these endeavors, so that we have new directions we might branch out to generate interest in sharing the fun with others who join MFI.
The Future Maquis has a lot going on, why do they need me? YOU are the key component to making The Future Maquis work! We are simply the team who know the way to work behind the scene, writing programs, keeping to the established rules and procedures, and bringing the newsletter and academy back to operational status. But, we could use your help in bringing in articles and sharing the cool things your cell is doing. We need more programmers, artists and administrators to share the load. This is your chance to make your voice heard, share in rebuilding this organization so that you can genuinely say it is your Maquis, as much as the rest of us do.
In Service, on my behalf and my candidate staff,

Coordinator Council
The Coordinator Council is, by definition 'the cornerstone of an alliance of decentralized chapters across the world.' While the individual cells are autonomous and self-governing, the international organization itself is governed by the Coordinator Council, which oversees the cell-elected Zone Coordinators. The Coordinator Council oversees the major international-level departments and serves much like a de-jure 'Board of Directors'.

Maquis Department and Branch Heads
The Department and Branch Heads are the directors of the 'Special Interest Groups' inside of MFI. Generally appointed and overseen by the Vice International Coordinator, the Branch Heads are the direct liasons to the Branch memberships, the Zone Coordinators and the Coordinator Council.
