The Nature Moncton board is an elected and appointed group of 9 individuals who meet monthly to plan and prepare for the Club’s upcoming activities.
The Board executive includes the president, vice-president, treasurer, secretary, and past-president. This group meets regularly to provide direction for the Board and Committees.
Committees are small groups of Executive, Board, and Club members who work together to plan activities, events, workshops, presentations; maintain the website, Facebook page, membership, finances; and more!
