SERVE AS AN OFFICER

Officers serve a term of one year in their position and, subject to vote of the members, move in consecutive years through the chairs from Chapter Director to Treasurer to Secretary to Vice-President to President to Past President. 

Serving as an officer is a good opportunity to give back to and work towards improving the industry that provides your livelihood.  Let an officer know if you are interested in serving.  See our By-Laws in the "About Us" section for more information on requirements and duties of officers.
