County Central Committee
Each County GOP is governed by a Central Committee. If you want to become a voting member of your County GOP's Central Committee, you need to file as a candidate.
The filing period is February 13 to March 9 with an election on June 5 (same ballot as the Presidential election).
As for Los Angeles and Orange Counties, our Central Committees are broken into Assembly Districts. I can't speak for other counties, but most likely it is the same.
Each Assembly District gets to elect a certain number of Central Committee members. For example, in Assembly District 36, 7 people were elected to the LA County GOP's Central Committee.
See results for LA County's 2010 election here.
Some Assembly Districts are very crowded while some don't have enough people running, which means you win by default as long as you file as a candidate (see 37th District - allowed to elect 7 members but only 4 people filed as candidates).
Requirements to be a candidate
There are some strict requirements related to being a registered member of the Republican party for a certain period of time. You can find the requirements at the bottom of this page here.
How to file as a candidate
You need to obtain nomination papers from your County Clerk and obtain 20 to 40 signatures of registered Republicans within your Assembly District.
You can get LA County's nomination papers here.
Assembly Districts have changed due to redistricting. You MUST file as a candidate in your NEW Assembly District.
