Sign Up for 2005 Committees and Councils by July 9

NAHB is looking for members who would like to serve on any of the association’s various committees and councils for the 2005 term. Members will be able to provide leadership, expertise and experience on the issues and challenges facing the industry.

The term begins immediately following the 2005 International Builders’ Show (IBS) in Orlando and continues through the completion of the 2006 IBS.

The deadline for applying for an appointment is July 9. Members are limited to serving on no more than two standing committees or councils.

Members can apply online by filling out the 2005 appointment sign-up form, indicating their interests. The form can be accessed on the NAHB Web site by clicking www.nahb.org/2005appointmentform, then return the completed form by e-mail, fax or mail to NAHB as indicated. Forms also can be found within the individual sections for the various committees and councils on the “members only" side of the NAHB Web site.

Final appointments will be made following the fall NAHB board of directors meeting and members will be notified by mail.

For more information, e-mail Cynthia McKinley or call her at 800-368-5242 x8346.
