    Hi, PAIG,

     

    If helpful in navigating Core, below are committees and interest groups within Core that are either preservation-focused, or preservation folks might have an interest in.

     

    Please do consider getting involved -- contact current chairs of interest groups to volunteer as co-chair or submit a volunteer form to volunteer for a committee. You can also reach out to committee chairs, or myself, with questions about volunteering. All volunteers must be current Core members.

     

    Thank you, all!

     

    Best,

    Martha

    Hello, everyone!

    I'd like to give a special plug to anyone who might be interested in volunteering for the Preservation Outreach Committee, that we are also looking for one of those volunteers to serve as Co-Chair of the Committee along with Jessica Bitely.  We have implemented an informal policy wherein two Co-Chairs serve essentially in the "Chair/Chair-Elect" roles at a time.  I'm coming off my two-year Co-Chair term and do not want Jessica to have to do it alone!  I can attest, she is wonderful to work with (as is everyone on the committee!).  Please feel free to reach out directly if you have any questions: dfeige@ccaha.org

    Thanks!
    Dyani
