EVENT & PROGRAM COMMITTEES

Do you want to be more involved in the PTA, but you're not sure where to start? 

Are you interested in planning events, but worried that you'll end up doing it alone? 

Do you want to meet new people and build a community at Laurelwood?

If you answered yes to any of these, then consider joining one or more of Laurelwood PTA's 2024-2025 Program and Event Committees!

What is a PTA Committee?

A PTA Committee is a group of PTA members who are in charge of planning and organizing a specific program or event.  All responsibilities will be divided up among committee members based on interests and skills. Each committee will be lead by an experienced PTA member. Being a committee member is a great way to take on more responsibility without having to worry that you'll have to plan the entire event alone!

What is the time commitment? 

There is no set time commitment or schedule required to be a committee member.  There's actually a lot of flexibility that comes with this role!  As long as you are able to help with some aspect of the planning process or take a leadership role during an event, you can be on a committee. Most of the planning and organizing happens prior to the event itself, which means that you can work on the days and times that are convenient for you! This is a great option for parents who would like to help more, but are unable to volunteer during PTA events.

What do committee members do?

Being a committee member offers more variety than a day of volunteering position. Every event and program has slightly different needs, but there is an event or program for every skillset. There are so many ways to help, and every little bit makes a big difference! 

Some Tasks Include:

• Graphic design
• Making decorations
• Web design
• Creating a children's activity
• Doing inventory
• Coordinating volunteers
• Taking photos
• And MUCH more
