Call for Volunteers

We have a couple of open Board positions and lots of additional opportunities for you to join with us on committees or to volunteer for a specific event or activity—such as helping with the Scholarship Committee or working on a Special Event. As the old saying goes, “many hands make light work”, so if you are interested in volunteering or would like some additional information, simply email president@ispi-frc.org, ask any member of the Board (contact information is on the ISPI-FRC website) or pick up a Volunteer Application at a member meeting. We'd love to have you become part of the team!

Venues Needed

Meeting times are typically evening (5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.) or half-day or full-day workshops, all during the work week. We are also looking at the interest level for holding meetings over lunch (11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m.).
