IYA Announces Openings for 2008 Board!
The IYA is looking for chairpersons for its 2008 IYA Board. Chair positions have a term of two years. We have openings for an Events Chair and a Karma Yoga Chair.
The Events Chair shall 1.) plan the fall retreat, 2.) Other events may be planned at the discretion of the Events Chair. Assistance for IYA events will be available from events planners for which the IYA would contract.
The Karma Yoga Chair shall 1.) facilitate yoga class or workshop opportunities for Indiana communities in distress; 2.) award Karma Credits to members who have demonstrated selfless service; 3.) organize Karma yoga projects that benefit Indiana communities in need; 4.) create opportunites to volunteer for IYA; 5.) provide matching funds to charitable causes or fundraising efforts.
Because email is the primary forum for communicating, IYA chairs must have access to email and agree to keep up with IYA board activities via email. Please send an email to info@indianayoga.org of your interest in any of the board positions. We look forward to hearing from you!
