SGSF Executive Committee

The Southern Group of State Foresters operates with an Executive Committee. The committee consists of a Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary/Treasurer and an Immediate Past Chair. Collectively, they act and decide matters on behalf of the non-profit organization.

The committee meets with the SGSF staff quarterly and with the entire membership during the annual and winter meetings.
