Nominating
Commitee
Every year, the Past President puts out a call out for members interested in working together to shape the SPIR Board for the following year. This nominating committee acts on behalf of the membership to make recommendations for individual members to be elected to the Board of Directors and Executive Board. It is a short-term commitment but with a big impact.
