RCC Area Chairs
The RCC, following election precincts, has a designated Area Chair for each of the areas found in the map above.
The help and support of the area chairs is invaluable as they play a large role in helping to recruit new members, retain existing members, and support our board and members to the best of their ability. Area chairs get first dibs on working on the recruiting committee, facilitate communication to other members in their area, and are some of the Caucuses best cheerleaders.
To find your Area Chair, locate your home on the map below, note your Area #, and find the Area Chair that serves your location.
Area #1 - Pending Area #2 - Mary Cerrone Area #3 - Laura Lindley
