     Title: Notes From the President-February 2002

Hello. This month I would like to take this opportunity to familiarize you with the Society’s committees and to give you a preview of some of their upcoming events.

Currently, the Society has twenty-one different committees, which are responsible for the everyday operations of the Society. Each committee is assigned a particular area of interest, such as social events, budget planning, or public relations. For example, the Distribution Committee is responsible for disseminating information to our members and the Computer and Internet Committee is responsible for maintaining our website. A description of the duties of each committee and a contact person can be found at our website: www.ptos.org.

The committees are formed from volunteers and headed by a chairperson. It is through the efforts of these volunteers that we are able to provide our membership with events such as Member’s Night on the Hill and the Annual Picnic. I encourage all PTOS members who wish to become active to join a committee. Already the committees are hard at work scheduling events for the upcoming year. This year’s Dinner Dance will be held on Valentine’s Day and the Annual Picnic will be held in June.

Also, I wish to invite you to the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will be held on February 28th and will feature as keynote speaker Director James Rogan. The Annual Meeting will be held in the Crystal City Forum at 10:00 a.m.
If you are interested in these events or would like to get involved in a committee, please see our website. I look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting.
