District Chairs:
In an effort to feel more connected, we need input and representation from all
areas of Arkansas. . A district chair will be the person in that designated
area to help answer questions and report concerns. This individual would
attend quarterly board meetings to report back as to the dynamics and
information shared within their respective district. They
would assist with district meetings for his/her area.
If you are interested in serving as a District Chair in your area or helping
with events in your area, send us an email to president@arota.org with "District
Chair" and what section in the subject line.
