Thursday, September 20, 1 – 5 p.m., Eastsound Fire Station

— from Kate Long for Orcas Community Foundation —

The Orcas Island Community Foundation will offer Board Boot Camp on Thursday, September 20, 1-5 p.m. at Eastsound Firehall. This action-packed workshop will help you develop the skills and knowledge needed to be an effective Board member. We will focus on individual responsibilities, team building, successful meeting practices, and nurturing a positive Board culture.

If you are considering Board service, but not yet committed, come learn the basics and see if this is a role you might enjoy. If you are already on a Board, come learn techniques to make your role more rewarding, both for you and your organization. We encourage your entire Board to attend as a group to reinforce your good habits and teach you new tricks.

Cost is $10 per individual or $25 per organization (and we encourage you to bring as many participants as you’d like).

If you have questions or wish to reserve a seat, please call OICF at 376-6423, or email info@oicf.us. Register online at: www.oicf.us.
