Volunteer/Join a Committee
What is your committee?
Membership Committee

 

Who are your co-chairs? 
Loretta Yingling and Rick Hud

 

What is your committee responsible for?
Membership has the huge job of recruiting new members to our chapter, welcoming members who have just joined, and keeping members engaged so that they renew their memberships. We host monthly Membership Days events virtually to encourage camaraderie and networking among members, and we plan several New Member Mixer events throughout the year to welcome our new members to the chapter.  

 

How often does your committee meet?
When are your meetings? Our committee meets once a month at 4 p.m. on the second Thursday, currently via Zoom.

 

What are some tasks people do for your committee? 
Our committee members make prospecting calls, welcome non-members to MPI-CAC events, and make sure new members have a “Member Buddy” to answer any questions they might have as they navigate MPI. We’re all-around ambassadors for MPI-CAC and are here to help both non-members and current members engage with the chapter.

 

What makes your committee fun or stand out?
Membership Committee is the ultimate committee for outgoing people! We’re always front-and-center at events—going up to people we don’t know, facilitating connections, and making everyone feel welcome. It’s a great committee for people who want to network because it gives you a great reason to start a conversation with someone at any event!
