Be a GBCA Leader: CLC Officers

When you join the CLC, you automatically join the At Large Committee. CLC members also have an opportunity to get further involved with GBCA and serve as CLC Officers. CLC Officers organize the CLC’s activities and create opportunities for the CLC’s At-Large members. They commit to attending additional meetings, serving on other GBCA committees, and taking on leading roles at events and activities.

Officers are selected each calendar year and in general, serve a 2-year term. The number of Officers appointed each year is dependent on the number of available spots (there are usually 7 Officers). Officers’ appointments are subject to approval by GBCA’s Board Chair.
