Club Committees
2021 - 2022 COMMITTEES
Club Committees are established by the Executive Board to carry out the purpose of the Garden Club of Chevy Chase (GCCC). The composition of Club Committees will include a Chair and Co-Chair (where applicable) and a specific number of members. Each member is required to serve on two (2) Club Committees each year. New Members are required to serve on the Civics Committee their first year of membership and one (1) other committee.
