COMMITTEE CHAIRS
If you have members helping
with your projects tell Chuck so he can list them in the committee
structure
below. If you don't have members helping you, you should be asking
them.
DON'T TRY TO DO IT ALL YOURSELF. Very few will just volunteer, because
most don't even know there is a job with which you need help.
There are many tasks to be accomplished,
and members joined to particapte in community service. Let's spread out
the workload so an individual does not become over taxed.
