Here's What's Happening This Month!!
Join Us On Big Tent!
We are in the process of making the move to our new website on Big Tent. Please let us know if you have not received your invitation to join. You can contact Stephanie Brady if you have any issues with logging in. Then hop on over there and take a look! We think you’ll really like the new site and all the things it can do!
Now Accepting Applications for Full Board Volunteer Roles! Submit by Friday, June 5!
Love CMOMs and want to get more involved? Now is the time to start thinking about how you can share your time and talent with our wonderful organization! We are now accepting applications for all Full Board/Committee Chairperson volunteer roles. Full Board roles are critical to the success our club! These volunteers are often “closest” to the members and making significant impacts on individual members.
To review the open positions and understand how the Full Board positions fit within the CMOMs organization, refer to the tab called 2009-10 Nominating Process on cmoms.net or look under the Forums tab on the new CMOMs Big Tent site (available on May 15 via www.cmoms.net). Once you’ve decided on the roles that interest you, simply complete the Full Board Application Form available under “Files” on the Big Tent site. In order to download the form, you must first activate your Big Tent membership (which is very easy!)
The Full Board Application Form must be submitted by Friday, June 5. ALL applicants must complete the Full Board Application Form, even if the applicant wishes to pursue a second term in their current role.
We also need volunteers for CMOMs Committees!
If you want to volunteer with CMOMs, but can only do so on a limited basis, we have nearly 10 committees that need new volunteers! Follow the instructions above to review the open committee positions. If interested in any of these roles, have questions, or would like to recommend someone as a volunteer, contact Kristen Felty
