EVENTS COMMITTEE
Brookshire Event Committee Goals and Objectives
The Brookshire Event Committee is responsible for the planning and execution of a wide
range of community gatherings. Other groups, teams and/or committees may plan and
execute events and activities independent of the Event Committee. The Event Committee
attempts to ensure a regular and ample schedule of events that are of interest to
community residents. These occasions include community meals, craft classes, holiday and
speaker events, day trips and much more. Suggestions are always welcome and can be
submitted to any committee member or by using the suggestion box in the Community
Newsroom.
Event Committee Chairperson Responsibilites: Before meetings the chair should plan
the agenda and verify that all necessary information is available. The chair conducts the
committee meetings and guides the committee through the agenda items. The chair
disseminates information to the committee members, such as budgets, HOA decisions, etc.
The chair functions as liaison between the Event committee and the HOA and other
committees. The chair ensures that committee members have the resources necessary to
meet the committee’s goals. The chair is responsible for making sure agreed tasks are
carried out, and making decisions between meetings if necessary.
