  • Serve on at least one subcommittee and participate in that committee's activities,
  • Attend NAASF Board meetings and events (typically, there are four board meetings each year),
  • Actively seek input from Franchisees in their respective regions by attending meetings, contacting them on a regular basis and soliciting input,
  • Represent the opinions of the Franchisees that are relevant to NAASF and the Subway® brand,
  • Provide input and direction to the NAASF staff on pertinent issues.
