Consider joining a force for good in the neighborhood!
Have you ever thought about joining your neighborhood association board? We'd love to meet you and add you to the roster of our thoughtful, well-intentioned, all-around-go-getter Board of Directors!
In a nutshell, Board Members attend regular monthly meetings, and help with projects in the neighborhood such as Movies in the Park, our Spring Clean-up, Pesticide-free Park Parties, Friends of Lombard, and more! We have room for your ideas and projects! The time commitment ranges from 3 hours/month, more if you have something you want to make happen outside of meetings.
Our elections are coming up in October, and we have room to grow and include more people. Please contact our Chair, Katy Asher, arborlodgepdx{at}gmail{dot}com if you'd like to learn more about what's involved in becoming a Board Member. If you confirm your candidacy by September 19th, we'll promote you via our website and Facebook. Hope to hear from you soon!
