<p class="MsoNormal">Good evening OASFAA,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am writing to let you know of some amazing volunteer opportunities with SWASFAA! Being a part of your regional association brings many networking opportunities and educational experiences that you don’t get at the state or national level.
Each committee is comprised of volunteers from each state… Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Louisiana, which gives you the opportunity to network with colleagues and bounce ideas off of those outside of your immediate area. You not only professionally
benefit from these connections, but you’ll also personally benefit from the lifetime friendships you will make! So come join us…<o:p></o:p></p>
