The volunteer who schedules speakers each month should have the schedule completed THREE MONTHS prior to the month. (e.g. July’s schedule should be complete by the end of April). BIOS MUST be received by both Mark Beckley and the host for the month no later than EIGHT WEEKS prior to the presentation. If you know of anyone who would be a good speaker, please share your ideas with our Program Committee.

PLEASE – before volunteering for any job, please review the NSBF Volunteer Responsibilities below:
(We appreciate all who volunteer to help. But it’s critical that if you cannot fulfill your responsibility, or have any questions whatsoever, you contact your mentor immediately. We also ask that you volunteer only if you have been attending NSBF meetings for at least six months.)

Greeter: Assist Cashier with setting up. Organize name tags, etc. Sit at greeter table so you can hand out 5-minute raffle tickets and sell the Membership Book. You’ll also welcome new members before the meeting to inform them more about how the meeting will operate and make them feel welcome. After the meeting, if possible, thank them for coming and ask that they keep coming.
