<p class="MsoNormal">it’s that time again! The state convention planning season is well on its way! I’m looking for a great core group of people who will help make this convention be a success.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are interested, please drop me a line with your phone number. Then let me know what areas of the convention planning process you’re interested in volunteering, and we will find a place for you on the team. The range of responsibilities
is vast--everything from coordinating with sponsors and managing meals to managing the convention floor and helping with creating a good guest experience and everything in between.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you were on the committee previously or have already reached out, please reach out again so that my data is fresh. If you want to volunteer but not feeling sure about where you want to be assigned, reach out anyway. We’ll talk through
the best position for you. If you want to lend a hand but feel concerned about not being able to move around the hotel, I assure you there is a spot for you on my team. Whether it’s at the affiliate level or as part of our host chapter team, we’ll coordinate
to get you plugged into the right assignments. Young, old, introvert, extrovert, shy, loud, sighted, blind ... the only important piece missing from my dream team is you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And, if you don’t want to volunteer yourself but know of a friend who would be great, I want to hear from them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I very much look forward to hearing back from you! May I count on you to serve with me this year?<o:p></o:p></p>
