The success of our Association is determined in great part by our members participation on the various committees for the coming year. This is a great opportunity to get more acquainted with some of your colleagues, and to make a difference for our membership and our community!
Take a moment to see which committees this year we are looking for additional help. I look forward to working with any volunteers!
