How can you contribute to shaping Downtown revitalization efforts?
Are you passionate about Downtown Burlington? Consider joining one of our Committees or Board! We are always looking for fun, engaging, passionate members. Board members serve three-year staggered terms, and commit to attending our monthly Board meetings (the first Thursday of each month for 60-90 minutes), and service on one of our Committees, an additional 60- minute monthly commitment.
Board members are actively involved throughout the month attending events, championing and promoting Downtown, assisting with committee tasks, etc. In return, you will gain a plethora of satisfaction in knowing that you are helping to make a difference by reinvigorating the Heart of our community, and making Burlington a better place for all!
