Additional Questions

1. Are you new to VHS or a current member? We are new this year.
We are returning members.

VHS Commitment

Members (new and returning) must choose an area of service within VHS. At least, one adult member from each family is required to contribute to the group in some capacity during each membership year. Members may serve in more than one commitment.

All applications for the various commitment positions will be subject to review and selection by the board. It cannot be assumed that a member will automatically keep the same commitment from year to year. Commitment requests are not first come, first serve. The purpose of the following questions is to strive for the best fit possible for all committees and members. Commitments will be assigned soon after completion of the membership renewal period.

The next section asks 6 questions to help identify what types of activities or events interest you. Please answer these questions even if you know which commitment you would like to sign up for. 2. Would you prefer an active / sport type
or an educational / Fine Arts type activity? Active / Sport type activity

Select 3 possible existing commitments that you are interested in. (You are not commiting to 3, just indicating your preference.)
Indicate you would like help determining which commitment would be a good fit.
Submit a new commitment idea that you would like to try this year.

Please review the Commitment List before continuing to familiarize yourself with commitments that have been done in the past.

If you know 3 possible commitments that you would like to be considered for, please type your 3 choices. This does not guarantee you one of these positions. Based on your interest responses, your favored commitments, and the existing availablity the Member Coodinator will contact you to discuss and confirm your commitment(s).

If you are unsure which commitment is a good fit for you, please type "Unsure". The Member Coordinator will reach out to you and suggest some commitments based on your interest responses.

If you have a new commitment idea, please type "New" and explain your idea below. 9. Are you interested in serving in more than one commitment?
Member families are only required to serve in one commitment. However many families have indictated they would like to participate more.

10. Additional Comments about commitments
Please indicate if you have experience with a commitment, a preferred role on a committee, or anything else that you think would be helpful for the board to consider. 11. New Commitment Idea
