Committees

Committees are where the hard work happens! Each committee is lead by board members, and include other volunteers, parents, and supporters. If you’re interested in lending a hand, shoot us an e-mail at youngfootliters@coralville.org.

Marketing

Posters, e-mails, press releases, and website updates. It takes a village to keep everyone up to date on Young Footliters’ activity. The Marketing committee assists in many projects – from taking photos to writing copy.
