Officer Nominations at Next Meeting

                     By Cherie Barth

 Officers are not merely figureheads for the group. These persons are true leaders who have distinct responsibilities. All such persons must establish lines of communication with the group in order to know what is going on within the organization. Part of being a leader is taking responsibility at a higher level than that of a group member.

Teamwork is essential to the success of chapter activities and events. The need to be active at core events is vital. You must be willing to volunteer on a regular basis and make phone calls to the membership for upcoming events. Your presence as a chapter officer will set an example for the entire membership/chapter. Submissions to the newsletter editor on a monthly basis are crucial to keep the line of communication open with our chapter and its activities. 

The commitment to be a chapter officer will require additional time over the regular member status.
