\par When y
ou join a committee you will receive email announcements regarding agendas and minutes for the various teleconferences and meetings held at TAPPI events.  Please note that you will receive these messages sporadically, as all committees set their own sched
ules.  A committee\rquote s face-to face meetings are held either in the summer of fall, depending on when their conference is held.
\par  
\par Participation in the calls will give you a better idea of what the committee is all about.   As you join in on these calls, feel 
free to ask questions.  If you are more comfortable contacting the committee chair outside of the call, I can provide you with additional contact information.  Just let me know!
\par  
\par Typically our committees will meet face-to-face at one of our larger events.
  As you get more familiar with the committee I highly recommend attending their conference as they provide not only excellent networking opportunities, but it's also nice to put a face with a name and a voice after you have participated and worked with t
he fellow volunteers.
