The RVW Program Committee is looking for members, especially from the mid-West and West, to help with its tasks. The purpose of this committee is to develop a plan to address program planning, development, implementation and evaluation of programs to address the changing needs of our members. Developing a resource list of seminar presenters would be an example of a task the committee might address. Providing a tool to evaluate our program offerings would be another task. Contact Ellen Stammer at mestammer@earthlink.net for more information and to join this creative group.
The RVW Policy and Procedure Committee is looking for additional members to tackle the task of compiling all the policies in our organization that are hidden in minutes, handbooks and other documents and providing the board one binder that contains them. They will also be looking at existing policies for potential review and making recommendations to the board. In addition they will be making suggestions for additional policies where needed to help put in words the decisions that guide us to achieve consistent and positive outcomes. Contact Sheila Welt at wetbear@sbcglobal.net for more information and to volunteer.
The RVW Election Committee needs members to seek out nominees for 2008 board positions and to perform other tasks in our election procedure. Before you know it, you will hear the beat of the drum again as we gear up for another election of new RVW board members. Supporting board members with training so that they are more effective is a high priority. The board has decided to move the election timing up to have the election concluded by convention next year and facilitate holding that first training at the convention. Convention is an opportunity for potential volunteers to committees to inquire about the tasks required and become a part of the effort. Contact Beckey Beckey at rvwbeckey@2wmconnect.com for more information and to volunteer.
A Finance Committee is being formed to review financial matters and make recommendations to the board. Details are being developed, but if you are financially inclined and have accounting or related experience, your skills are needed. Contact Sally Johnson at sally_johnson3@msn.com
