BOARD MEMBER RESPONSIBILITIES:
Elected positions serve two-year terms. The board meets monthly, the second Thursday of the month, from 8:30am-10:30am at locations across the region. It sets and shapes the policy of the organization and provides strategic direction for the region’s economic and business development efforts. Elected board members are eligible to hold officer positions. Other responsibilities can include serving on committees or working on periodic special projects. For most EDCO board members, the average time commitment, including meetings, travel and preparation, is four to five hours per month. Board members who choose to serve on one or more committees would see this commitment increase accordingly.
DEADLINE:
Friday, June 17th – 5:00pm
