Do you want to help shape the future of our environment? Perhaps there’s a community project or environmental idea you’ve been pondering over, waiting for the right opportunity to bring it to life? Consider this your sign! Wildsight Golden is seeking dedicated individuals to join our board of directors. This is your chance to step up for nature and bring about real, positive change in our community and wild spaces.
We are particularly interested in recruiting new board members with a passion for and skills in running events, leading programs, and fundraising. If you don’t have these skills but would like to learn, we can offer you experience, mentorship, funding opportunities and a platform to have a tangible impact on projects that mean something to you. This is a voluntary position which requires attendance at monthly board meetings to collaborate, discuss ongoing projects, and brainstorm future endeavours, as well as regular communication with our branch manager.
If you have a project you wish to propose, advocate for, plan and lead, or you’d like to get involved in existing citizen science initiatives, we would love to hear from you! Please get in touch before March 4th so we can discuss your skills and ideas, and help you decide if it’s the right form of public service for you.
All are invited to attend our AGM, you don’t have to be a member to come along, but only members can nominate and vote on new candidates for the board. Join us at the Island restaurant at 7pm on March 4th to find out what Wildsight Golden has achieved this year, our upcoming plans and a chance to have your say. A dessert bar and light refreshments will be provided, as well as door prizes of PurpleAir monitors, courtesy of our air quality committee. Brush up on your Botany skills for a fun environmental themed game to kick the evening off.
We look forward to seeing you there!
