Volunteers
The Coaches Association is run by volunteers. Although the officers of the association are elected, much of the work of the association is done by unelected, appointed chairpersons who have a special interest or talent and offer to volunteer their time.
Here is a list of the unelected positions and, in most cases, the name of the person currently filling the position. For those marked with an asterisk, the positions are either unfilled, or the people currently filling the position are eager to have someone else step forward and offer to take over the job. They would be happy to work with the new person to ease the transition.
In any case, our thanks go out to all these IHSSBCA members, who collectively donate over 500 hours of their time.
