      <title>A Time To Serve (1 Mar 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Dear Members,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;I hope this message finds you well.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Our City Clerk Association continues to grow and thrive because of the dedication and involvement of members like you. One of the best ways to strengthen our organization and support our profession is through &lt;strong&gt;active participation on our committees&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;We are currently &lt;strong&gt;seeking volunteers to serve on several committees&lt;/strong&gt;. These committees play an essential role in planning events, supporting professional development, strengthening communication, and advancing the goals of our association.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;You must meet the following criteria for appointment to a committee:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;1.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Serve as a practicing municipal clerk or clerk of council of Mississippi.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;2.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Serve as a practicing deputy municipal clerk or deputy clerk of council of MS and provide a letter of support from the municipal clerk or clerk of council.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Hold a current, active paid membership in MMCCA.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;4.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Possess or be in active pursuit of a MS CMC or MS CDMC designation and provide proof of such pursuit.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;5.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Encourage attendance at all functions of MMCCA, MML and IIMC if possible.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;6.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Committee members shall be prepared to serve as working members.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;7.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Respond to requests by the Chair within a reasonable time period.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;8.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Absorb the cost of telephone calls and correspondence (within reason) during the term of service on the Committee.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Serving on a committee is a valuable opportunity to share your ideas and experience, build meaningful connections with fellow clerks, earn points towards IIMC Certifications and to develop leadership skills.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;We encourage every member to consider signing up for at least one committee. Your involvement makes a difference, and your voice matters.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;If you are interested in serving, complete the committee sign-up form by May 15, 2026.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;I will notify you of your appointment by June 1, 2026, and you have until June 15, 2026, to accept the position.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Thank you for your continued commitment to our profession and our association.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
