Club Executive Positions & Special Committees
Committee Info
Running for an officer position or joining one of our specialized club committees are ways you can get involved and engage with other women working on common interests. Our leadership group has goals of:
​
-
Presenting an inviting atmosphere for women (and men) to gather
-
Teaching about what is happening in our communities
-
Providing a call to action and learning how to make a difference by getting involved
Committees are where members can step into leadership in our group and prep for how to step into the next level of leadership in their community, county and state.
Our executive committee consists of 5 officer positions and committee chairs. The executive committee holds a planning meeting the 4th Thursday of each month. Term lengths for officer positions are 2 years.
Other committees, such as our communications, membership and hospitality committees, are specialized in their area of focus. These committees meet as needed and provide great ways for you to bring your expertise to the club or even branch out and try something new.
