Do you have chapter meetings? Attend all meetings and introduce yourself to others.
Are there scrimmages you can work before the season starts? You won't get paid for these but they are great for being seen and getting to work with other officials in your group.

As a newer official who is starting his 2nd year both as a high school official
and a member of this board, it's replies like BITS' and from other veteran members of this board that make it a great place for us newbies to learn the in and outs of become a better official.
Nice job BITS....I'm adding it to my collection of printouts from last year.
