Committees


One of the best ways to become involved with our Chapter and begin to build peer relationships is to actively participate in a committee. Without our committees, our Chapter would not have experienced the level of success that we have to date.

To volunteer your time and help our Chapter succeed, review the committee list below. A listing of the current participants is included. Used in conjunction with our member directory, you can contact the chairperson of the committee to offer your time. Feel free to Contact Us for help in facilitating this contact.
