Jessie Channey, President, STC Alberta, president@stc-alberta.org

Are you interested in being part of the award-winning team that runs STC Alberta? The time is now. As some of our volunteers are moving on for 2012, now is a great time to jump in and join us. We’ve had such high volunteer involvement in the past few years that we’ve been able to form teams for many of our roles, so join a team (see all positions here), or take on one of the following positions. As always, you’ll have full access to a knowledgeable and experienced council, and past volunteers to help you along the way! There are a variety of positions to choose from, so take a look and contact me directly for more information. I’ll put you in touch with our current volunteer and provide a complete job description so you can fully explore the opportunity.

We are regularly looking for copyeditors and writers to join our team. Copyeditors review the final published version of the online newsletter and provide feedback to the Lead Editor with a quick turnaround time. Writers can pitch article ideas or the Editor might assign topics. In particular, we are looking for writers to contribute “editing tips of the month” and to review STC events and programs. Involvement with the Newsletter Team can be short-term or long-term and is a great way to get involved behind the scenes. And since we’ve got a Newsletter team, that means there are others to share in the effort. Contact newsletter@stc-alberta.org.
