Consultants

Consultants can be a great asset to an activity. Because these adults have been recruited by the Crew Committee, the Activity Chair should not hesitate to ask for their help. The Activity Chair should explain the activity to the Consultant who is helping and find out how the consultant's expertise can be helpful for the activity. In addition, the Activity Chair should review with the Consultant what is expected of him or her and what equipment or supplies are needed, if any. After this discussion, the Activity Chair should follow up with a letter to the Consultant, summarizing their discussion, so that there is no misunderstanding. Also thank the Consultant after the activity of over.

Remember, the Consultant is there to help, no to chair the committee.
