Description

Join us for a journey towards community leadership with the first in a series of 5 workshops designed to: 

• teach volunteer boards how to be effective
• teach individuals how to be valuable members of boards

Whether you are already on a board, or you are considering volunteering for a board, join us for any of the Board Development series of workshops or purchase a five workshop pass. The journey will culminate in a fun "speed date" style opportunity to meet with local organizations who'd like to see if you are a great fit for their board. 

First Stop: Pack Your Bags! Board Basics & Effective Meetings

What: Find out what boards do, how they do it, and how to run effective board meetings. 

Who: Stacy Ashton, Executive Director, Community Volunteer Connections & Jaimie McEvoy, New Westminster City Council
