Committees

The Tiger paws board is looking toward next year and who would like to serve as a committee chair. If you are feeling lead or desire to take a leadership role; please email tigerpaws@occhristian.pvt.k12.ia.us and let us know your desires. All committee chairs are assigned a 3 year term, to enable learning, understanding, and teaching new members. The choices are to be a part of the Tiger Paws Board, Fall pig in the Blankets, OCCS Apparel, School Supplies & Kitchen, Soup Supper, Tulip Festival Tent, Tulip Festival pig in the Blankets, Tulip Festival Straat Market, or Tulip Festival Soup and Tavern. Each committee has a busy season and time where meetings need to be scheduled, but the commitment is doable. Join with us and let us know your desires.
