Deadline Nears to Apply to Serve on NAHB Committees

NAHB members who are interested in volunteering to serve on NAHB committees and councils have only until Oct. 7 to submit their request.

This year’s appointment process has been upgraded to include an online list of appointment requests that will enable applicants to verify that their information has been sent in and received, NAHB Vice President/Secretary Sandy Dunn told the association’s board of directors at its fall meeting earlier this month in Reno, Nev.

Notifications about appointments to the committees will be made as soon as possible, although some appointments may not be decided until after the International Builders’ Show in January.

For information and to sign up, NAHB members can click here.

For further information, contact the NAHB Executive Office at 800-368-5242 x8345.
