Committees Play an Important Role within LMOA: On Tuesday

evening, February 1, two meetings will be held in the Terrace Room that will highlight
LMOA committees. In addition to committee members, other LMOA members who are interested in
committee activities are welcome to attend.
 At 6:30PM, the Annual Committee Orientation will be an excellent learning opportunity for committee members who want to
learn about Association resources and ways to increase effectiveness. Veteran and new committee members and chairpersons are
encouraged to attend. Presenters will include President Scott Meiss, General Manager John Korhonen and Communications Manager
Peggy Alexander.
 At 7:30PM, the Board and Committee Chairs Work Session will give each committee chair an opportunity to update the Board
on current activities, the status of projects and plans for the future. Chairpersons who are unable to attend may delegate a committee
representative. Time will be allotted for member comments on the agenda topic only before the discussion begins.
