Fun Stuff
| | In addition to the Executive Board, the MOMS Club of Eagle
River utilizes coordinator positions to help create a fun and relaxed
environment for our membership.
There were several reasons that went into our decision to do this:
 | To get each member a little more involved WITHOUT having to give a lot of extra time. |
| To allow other members that have taken on larger roles to cut back on some of the time they spend doing MOMS Club 'work'. |
| To streamline certain activities and to make them run smoother as well as more efficiently. |
We have done a lot of talking amongst ourselves, new and older members, and other clubs throughout the nation researching the way they breakdown opportunities for involvement.
Each job should take NO MORE than 2 - 3 hours a month to complete, if even that much.... some will just be a few calls a month!

As our needs change, we add and subtract positions to suit the Club.
