IFI Event Core Leadership Team

Thank you for your interest in joining the Events Planning Team! The purpose of the team is to support the Event Coordinator in planning and implementing IFI events. 

Commitment

Be available to meet with the Event Coordinator and other Team Leads at least once before each event.  

Be able to attend/support at least half of the annual student events. Ideally we will have two leaders for each Team, but if there are not two leaders committed ahead of time, there may be a need to help during more than half of the events and/or to recruit someone else.

IFI is presently planning the annual Welcome Events for the upcoming school year (2022-2023). We hope to have a core team in place by August 1, 2022 to help oversee (3) events in August. See our current Events Calendar below.
