The Orcas Island Community Foundation is offering “Board Boot Camp” on Tuesday March 25 from 1 to 5 p.m. at Emmanuel Episcopal Parish Hall.

This action-packed workshop will help you develop the skills and knowledge needed to be an effective board member.

The group 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,” say organizers. “If you are already on a board, come learn techniques to make your role more rewarding, both for you and your organization.”

Attendees are encouraged to come with their entire board as a group to reinforce  good habits and learn new tricks.

The cost is $10 per individual or $25 per organization (bring as many participants as you’d like).

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