Area III and Area IV GVATA members,

We are looking for GVATA members that would be willing to serve on the new
GVATA committees for the coming year. The GVATA membership recently voted
to restructure the committees to make them more meaningful in service to
our organization. The pdf attached to this email explains the vision,
mission, and purpose of each committee. This will be a 2-year minimum
commitment. However, Area 3 volunteers will rotate off in odd years while
Area 4 teachers will rotate off in even years.  Next year is an odd
physical year, so Area 3 teachers are only agreeing to a one year
commitment. However, members can serve another term because 2 years is a
minimum... not a maximum. We want the committees to actually meet via ZOOM
or other means throughout the year to accomplish their tasks in service to
the membership.

Whether you are a veteran teacher or a relatively new teacher, if you have
an interest in being involved in service to agriculture teachers, please
let us know. Please include if there is a particular committee you are
interested in serving as well.


   1. Advocacy in Ag Ed
   2. Financial Review
   3. Member Experience
   4. Professional Development
   5. Teacher, Recruitment, Retention, and Recognition
