On May 22, we held a board meeting to update and revise the CRCII committees. Those that were discussed were the nomination, marketing, by-laws and meeting committees. At the meeting, board members were assigned to and volunteered to work on these committees. In regards to the nominating committee, the slate of officers and board members will be presented in July, and the election will be held at the October general membership meeting. If you would like to join the board of directors or nominate someone, contact our office.

CRCII is now presenting webinars available to all carpet cleaning companies throughout Illinois so that we are a “true” Illinois association. We are also planning on having meetings in other parts of Illinois. Please contact our office if anyone is interested in hosting a meeting in their area.
