Time Commitment
We generally have 1.5 hour monthly full-board meetings and professional development and 1 hour monthly committee meetings.

Additionally, there is work outside of scheduled board meetings consisting of committee work, emails, special circumstances meetings, etc. This amounts to an average of 2-4 hours of work a week depending on the time of year. Meetings are generally in the evening on weekdays - usually Mondays. We will send applicants who are interviewed a more detailed schedule to make sure this time commitment works for you.
