To provide member recognition, this committee also promotes ongoing member volunteer service and activities through awards (Star Awards throughout the year and annual awards), chapter articles, and birthday/anniversary acknowledgements. The committee is responsible for planning and executing the chapter’s year-end annual awards event (known as the Evening of the Stars).    



    Member Recruitment & Retention

This committee develops and executes membership promotion and growth strategies throughout the year. Member Recruitment is a chapter-wide responsibility, and this committee provides resources and specific strategies to ensure we are hitting all cylinders to create continuous membership growth.

By coordinating efforts with the Member Recruitment and Engagement committees, the Member Retention committee follows the life cycle of the member and creates proactive communications.
