Social Media Club South Florida

Volunteers

The Social Media Club South Florida wouldn't be possible without the hard work of several volunteers. The folks below help make all of these events possible. Terms are one-year, though many folks stay on for additional terms.

The Social Media Club South Florida Area is looking for help shaping the future of social media in Southern Florida. We have identified roles that we needed support filling. These four people form the leadership team of the South Florida group. If you'd be interested in helping one of them, please send an email to kristiewells [at] gmail [dot] com or smc [at] smcsf [dot] org. And your input on these roles is welcome--as with all the Social Media Club Wiki pages, this one is editable too (the password is above, feel free to add your comments or suggestions below).
