The Eastern Branch depends on volunteers
to perform the critical functions that keep our branch active
and productive. Without the active participation of members
in the executive, standing, and ad hoc committees we
would be unable to provide quality programming for our annual
meeting. The next annual meeting is scheduled for March 20-23, 2009 at the Harrisburg Hilton and Towers, Harrisburg, PA. If you're considering volunteering a small portion of your time for committee service
this year, please
contact either the current chair of the committee in which you're interested or this year's Secretary, Mr. Dan Gilrein, or Eastern Branch President, Dr. Rod Youngman.
On behalf of the entire Eastern Branch membership, please accept my thanks for your willingness to serve - Dan Gilrein.
