local teachers, if at all possible, to add drawing power with players in the area.


2. Encourage participation by newer players through advance advertising, prizes,

pictures, etc.


3. Work with the TM to prepare suitable venues for guest speakers and to provide

free plays for presenters.


4. Be present to greet newcomers and to introduce speakers.


5. A local I/N co-chairperson will be responsible for staffing reception area for I/N’s, sending postcards, etc.


The Education Committee will also be responsible for coordinating special programs for our membership during tournaments. Programs may include:
