    GODORT Needs You!

    All kidding aside, GODORT needs leaders, people who are committed
    to providing government information to the people, people like you.

    Too often we wait for someone to tap us on the shoulder and ask.
    Some people get left out    , not because they wouldn't do a wonderful job, but
    because we, the Nominating Committee, didn't know of their interest.

    We are asking for your help. If you would like to stand for election for  
    one of these positions:

    Assistant Chair/Chair-Elect (3 year commitment)

    Secretary (1 year commitment)

    Awards Committee (2 year commitment)

    Bylaws Committee (2 year commitment)

    Nominating Committee (2 years commitment)
