EBS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE VACANCIES GENERAL SECRETARY. This position is very important, but only requires for general correspondence to be handled following guidance from the Committee meetings. ASSISTANT GENERAL SECRETARY (Minutes) - The applicant would be required to attend the Committee Meetings and take brief note and produce a set of Minutes, again with assistance from the Chairman. OUTDOOR EVENTS ORGANISER - This applicant would be required to suggest which Fairs, Shows, etc. the Society attend during the year. Once endorsed by the Committee the booking would be made and from the list of volunteers arrange who attends to man the stand. PUBLICITY ORGANISER - The applicant would be required to do what it says on the tin. To undertake as much publicity for the Society as possible in all areas of the media. RECORDERS - At present we still only have our Senior Recorder doing all the work!! This is not acceptable if the membership expects to continue receiving the award winning Essex Bird Report. Many hand make light work. So if we can get a team of three, four or more Recorders together this would be ideal and very rewarding. RECORDING TEAM CO-ORDINATOR - This member keeps the 'coggs' of the Recorders, the ID Panel and the Exec. Committee working well together with relevant information flowing between all groups. All enquiries to the Chairman
