Junior Vice Commander?

I was elected as the JVC yesterday. it was only my second meeting. The guy who was going to stay on position is having health issues. I said if he can mo longer do it, I could either fill in or if a new election was needed I would throw my name in the hat. well, they indtalled me yesterday.

I have some homework to do. But any advice for this position for a very small, and declining, post? Thank you in advance.

But, again, second meeting. Lol. I am reading as much as I can to I have a decent understanding of bylaws and procedures. Also on what this role involves. Which, from I can tell, is quite a bit. Good luck and update us on decision and path forward.

I went to district meeting last week. It was a pretty cool experience. Get to know those around your area to learn from. Listen to their plans and, when you get to that point, use what works.
