They attend monthly board meetings; serve on committees lending their time, talent and expertise; assist with delivering Highlighter magazines two times per year (Spring and Fall); are present and volunteer at our neighborhood events, and more. A new board member orientation will take place on June 14, 2023 at 6:30PM (location and details provided once elected). Newly elected board members are expected to attend orientation.

Terms for this election cycle begin July 1, 2023 and run for 2 years, ending on June 30, 2025.
