Dear PAECT members,

As you well know, PAECT is your organization: the board and committee chairs, both regionally and for the state, are volunteers, selflessly giving hours of their time to make PAECT the great organization that it is. Some of you have already given back to the organization by running for elected office or offering services in various areas. 

One thing we consistently hear as we talk with members from across the state is “How can we get involved?” Contacting your regional director is always one option we suggest. Getting involved in your region, planning for and participating in the wide variety of events offered, is certainly one way to “get your foot in the door.”

While there has never been a formal way of indicating a desire to be involved on the state level, we felt it was important to do so now. As the organization grows and evolves, we understand it is important to include fresh voices and new energy to sustain and help the organization continue its evolution. This is your call to action!

The PAECT Board has a number of non-voting committee chairs that are critical to our operations. They include the following:

• Newsletter Chair
  
• Parliamentarian
  
• Webmaster
  
• Membership Chair
  
• Student Showcase
  
• Marketing
  
• Sponsorships
  
• Advocacy
  

If you have an interest in serving on a state level committee or as a presidentially-appointed board-level committee chair, you are welcomed and encouraged to share your specific area of interest with PAECT President Brandon Lutz (pres@paect.org) by March 16, 2016. If you would prefer to be involved more locally, contact your regional director at any time. Visit our CONTACTS PAGE to find your regional director’s contact information.

Thanks you for your service,

Brandon Lutz            Scott Snyder

President                  Vice-President
