Hello Baltimore!
Hey Baltimore!
Would you believe me if I told you that there wasn’t a single Social Media Club in Maryland? It’s true! Many of us travel to to the DC chapter to participate in their events, but that’s a lot of driving. And we know that there is a thriving social media interest right here. Well, that’s about to change.
First, let me introduce myself. I’m Amy Phillips, a SharePoint developer for Booz Allen Hamilton and I’ll be chairing the SMC, but I need a TON of help. Currently, we need board members to plan our outreach, social media, events, and partnerships. Here are the board positions I’m looking to fill:
Programming Director (Executive Vice President)
Partnership/Sponsorship Director (Vice President)
Promotions Director (Vice President)
Event Managers
Membership Managers
Content Organizer/Digital Scribe
I am also looking for a liaison with APG, and after gauging interest, that may also be a board position.
If you are interested in any of these positions, please email me at smcbaltimore@gmail.com, asap! I am looking to hold a planning luncheon later on this month.
Look forward to working with you all!
Upcoming!
I know! Nothing is here yet! But don't worry we're working on it. There is a team forming to bring you all things Baltimore Social Media. If you'd like to help, with a web presence, speaking, writing blogs, whatever, feel free to drop me a line at amydpp {at} gmail {dot} com. Talk to you soon!
