Minuteman Committee- Jim Anderson, Chair
"The Minuteman Committee, a relatively low profile committee due to the behind-the-scenes work we do, serves an important role on behalf of CS-IFT and represents an excellent "first step" for any CSIFT member looking to serve our section." Members of the Minuteman Committee are asked to act as the sections visible representative within their individual companies. The primary job function is to actively re-communicate what's going on within CSIFT: upcoming meetings/dinners, speaker opportunities, technical presentations, services available at the CSIFT web site and of course our nationally recognized Suppliers Night to name just a few. Keeping members and non-members alike informed about what we're doing on behalf of our industry also encourages membership (only $15 per year, reimbursed by many employers) in CSIFT. If you're interested helping please feel free to contact Jim Anderson, Committee Chair, at jnanderson@caravaningredients.com |
