TAPPA Board Introduction

The TAPPA Board of Directors is a cross section of our Association’s membership, including business partners and facility managers. Our bylaws state, “that The Board of Directors (also referred to as the Board) shall be composed of twelve members: six duly elected members (directors), two duly elected business partners, plus the President, the Vice President, the Secretary-Treasurer, and the Immediate Past President.” These volunteers are here to represent the membership, so please reach out to them if you have questions or suggestions.
