We often have plenty of short-term tasks needing completion for the success of our programs and workshops including, but not limited to, things like:
- Hanging posters/distributing flyers
- Helping with set-up and take-down at events
- Providing support at the registration table
- Creating name tags for registrants
Other short-term tasks that aren’t related to our programming include:
- Volunteering to write an article for the next issue of League Lines that recaps one of the speakers featured at a program
- Serving on a subcommittee for a special project or initiative
- Helping out at the LVW table at other events
Beyond these one-off opportunities, you can also get involved more long-term by joining one of the following committees:

- Develop the League’s quarterly programs including the selection of speakers, venue, menu, and other particulars
- Organize the occasional workshop including working with the workshop facilitator/speaker to develop the day-long activities, determine the location, and other specifics
- Facilitate all details of the biennial event, Writers Meet Agents.
Membership:
