AMHA
Committees
The AMHA relies on its member-run committees to perform various functions within the organization. From the Youth and Amateur Committees to the Bylaws Committee, each group consists of hard-working members dedicated to the success and function of their various committees. Together, these committees help the AMHA be what it is today!
If you are interested in joining a committee, please contact the Chair and let them know. We'd love to have more members involved!
