One-time / other volunteer opportunities:

Please select the opportunities you would like to participate in for 2023:

As a welcome wagon volunteer, we will ask you to contact a new member or two shortly after they join to introduce yourself and check in with them. We'll make sure you have all of the necessary info and talking points for a great conversation!

We'll contact you when we have regional or statewide events that we may need assistance with (helping at the registration table, etc.)

This is for people who would like to host an event where we can talk about the work WHLA is doing and the health of the lodging industry in Wisconsin. Volunteers will be asked to coordinate space and invite local hoteliers to the event.

Check this if you'd like more information on starting a chapter in your area.

I'd be interested in serving on the WHLA Board of Directors in the future, should I be nominated.
