NYC SPUG Looking for a Speaker Committee Volunteer
The Speaker Committee, headed by Jason Medero of B&R Business Solutions, is looking for another member. The Speaker Committee is responsible for booking the monthly speakers and making sure the presentations are consistent with the goals of the NYC SPUG. Specifically we are looking for a representative from the SharePoint User business community (versus someone from the vendor, consulting or professional services industry). If interested, please send an email to nycspug@hotmail.com.
NYC SPUG Looking for Education Committee Volunteers

However, volunteers are still needed to join Tony. If you are interested in getting involved in educating your fellow NYC SPUGs, please send an email to nycspug@hotmail.com.
