Reminder: The U.S. Grains Council is currently accepting applications for Advisory Teams (A-Team) through April 30.

The A-Teams provide insight and guidance to the Board of Directors on the direction and activities of the Council. A-Team members serve a two-year term, renewable without limit at the discretion of the Board. Current delegates whose terms expire in 2013 must resubmit applications if they wish to continue to serve on an A-Team. Interested Council delegates not currently serving are encouraged to apply.

Applications will be reviewed by the Board of Directors, and new A-Team members will be appointed as part of the Board’s meeting on August 1 in Ottawa, Canada. Contact Valerie Smiley, USGC manager of membership administration, at 202-789-0789 or vsmiley@grains.org for more information.
