Regional Treasurers maintain all financial records of the Region.
Regional Representatives are conduits between the Region Board and the membership, particularly in dissemination of information, planning of Section and Regional events, and membership maintenance and recruiting.
All positions have a two year term, with the exception of the presidency. The presidency is a three year commitment: a year each as president-elect, president, and past president.
Please consider running. It is a fantastic professional and personal development experience.
