Should I join a Board of Directors?
November 19 to November 19, 2025
The Bow Valley has no shortage of volunteer boards of directors for not-for-profit and/or charities. However, we know that whether you are new to the community or new to a board of directors, it can be very daunting to join a board.
This two-hour workshop will review the responsibilities of a governance board, including key roles, versus the role of the Executive Director and the relationship between the two. We will also review questions to ask before joining a board, and there will be a Q&A session. This workshop will be led by Reinira Lankhuijzen, Chair, and Brenda Stanton, Executive Director of Bow Valley Adult Learning Centre.
FREE and Refreshments will be provided.
These workshops have been made possible thanks to a Town of Canmore Community Grant.
