Are You Interested in Being a Commission Chairman?

The Detachment Committee on Committees is looking for any member interested in being a Detachment Commission Chairman. Are you interested?

The Department has a program to solicit members who are interested in serving on a committee or commission. They have a position/job description and a fill in the blank resume to be completed by those who are interested.

The Detachment Committee on Committees has adopted this approach. In consultation with the candidates for Detachment Commander, the Committee on Committees has put together a position description for 5 of our 6 Commissions, Americanism, Children & Youth, Internal Affairs, Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation and Legislative.

So we need your assistance. We are looking for motivated members that have an understanding of the Sons of The American Legion Program and are interested in assisting the Detachment Commander and the Detachment of Florida in a positive way.

Please look at the position descriptions listed below and if interested please complete the resume form and submit to Detachment Adjutant Ed Sheubrooks by mail for consideration. You can also print, fill out, scan and e-mail to Ed at fishermn9@aol.com. Current Chairmen need to submit also if you are interested in retaining your position or changing it.
