The Board of Directors of the Tri-Town Youth Service Bureau consists of 12 to 18 members from the tri-town area of Chester, Deep River, and Essex. Each board member serves a two-year term, with no more than three consecutive terms served. One can serve again after a year's absence.

Board members are expected to participate in meetings, fundraising activities and to promote Tri-Town Youth Services and its mission.

Meetings
The Tri-Town Board meets once a month between the months of September and June at 7:30 p.m. Committees meet as needed throughout the year.

Committees
Each board member serves on at least one committe; personnel, finance, membership/nominating and fundraising are our standing committees and meet when necessary. Special committees are formed as needed.

Fundraising
All board members participate in the bureau's fundraising activities. Our major fundraising activities are the annual telethon and Taste of the Valley in the fall. Board members are asked to spend one or more evenings at their town hall making calls for donations and to broaden our donor mailing base.

In addition
Board members are also repsonsible for bringing in new members when vacancies need to be filled.
