| BEST WAY TO NETWORK?
GET INVOLVED! Join a Committee!
►
DTMA, like other volunteer organizations, accomplishes its goals through the efforts of volunteers and staff. Coordinated by the Association's managing director, the following committees provide input to the Board of Trustees and direction on action to be taken. Your time is valuable, so committees meet on an as-needed basis, generally once every four to six weeks. Tasking by committee members is kept to a minimum. Contact the Association office if you would like to get involved! Member Services Committee Mission: Recruit new members; promote Association benefits to all members to ensure satisfaction and retention; increase member involvement; and analyze member needs and identify benefits and service solutions. This committee's focus is on keeping in touch with members and identifying "value added" benefits and services to improve the Association from the "customer's" point of view.

Ambassadors
Club – What is it and Who Are They?
One
of the goals of the Member Services Committee is to ensure members
feel connected with the Association.
To this end, an “Ambassadors Club” has been formed.
All Regular members are assigned an Ambassador who will contact
Regular members approximately once a quarter by phone, email, or a
personal visit. Take this
opportunity to relay any information to them that would add value to
your membership in DTMA. They
will, in turn, keep you up to date on the happenings from the
Association front. If you are an Associate member and would like to be an Ambassador, please contact Cindy Reeves at cindy@dtma.org. This is a terrific way for members to stay in touch with fellow members and keep the DTMA spirit alive!
