The Membership Committee is tasked with recruitment and retention of members, publicity, administrative duties, and organizing social activities. The Membership Committee meets monthly, contact any committee member for details, or email encorelearn@clatsopcc.edu.

The Membership Committee recruits new members, provides opportunities for the surrounding community to learn about ENCORE, and promotes ENCORE via local media, social media, radio, and Clatsop Community College. The committee submits news articles, announcements, and other activities that may be of interest to the general public and provides speakers to explain ENCORE to interested groups.

Social activities may include a Holiday “Bash”, a summer picnic, monthly “Lunch Bunch” get-togethers at local restaurants, and other celebrations.
