Most meetings run until noon but reps are free to leave earlier if necessary.
Each representative also serves on a subcommittee. Scholarship - serves as the fund raising arm, sets fund raising goals, conducts the annual golf tournament. These subcommittees usually meet an average of one hour monthly.

Each year Commission appointments are made to those committees and that is another way a person can serve others.
