Chapter Advisory Council Members Needed

October 2015 - At the EAA membership meetings held during AirVenture Oshkosh 2015, the EAA board of directors approved a multiyear chapters strategic plan. The strategic plan was the work of a special board committee headed up by EAA board member Cody Welch. A key part of that plan is to form a new volunteer council specifically charged with providing input to EAA staff.

“I’m thrilled to have a volunteer council made up of chapter leaders to help us” said new Director of Chapters Charlie Becker. “I’ve worked with the Homebuilt Council for many years and that group of dedicated individuals has helped the staff make some great improvements for our members like this year’s enhancements in homebuilt camping. It is always good to have dedicated and talented volunteers to help!”

Candidates for the council should be actively engaged members of their local chapter with a minimum of two years’ experience as a chapter officer. Terms are three years, and the council will meet annually in Oshkosh in addition to monthly teleconferences. Volunteers should plan for a commitment of up to 10 hours per month.
