Join the Board of Directors

Members of the board of directors use their ideas and energy to help identify and meet the needs of local residents, and contribute towards building a stronger community. The board also offers you the opportunity to:

  • Champion causes dear to the Kerrisdale neighbourhood;
  • Volunteer your technical, social and creative skills for the common good;
  • Gain professional credit for making a community contribution;
  • Influence the implementation of programs and services provided by KCCS.

Apply to Join the Board of Directors

Complete an Application Form and submit accompanying materials by February 1, 2024, and be prepared to attend the Annual General Meeting on February 21, 2024. Please attach a short resume describing your community interests and any other board experience. You should include any past experience in teaching, fundraising, promotions, legal work, finance or administration etc.

Applications and supporting materials can be sent digitally through the form on this page, or can be submitted by email to kerrisdaleccsociety@gmail.com or can be dropped off in person at the Kerrisdale Community Centre front desk.

Interviews will be held to review the role of Directors in the operation of the community centre and the Society’s expectations of Directors, and to answer any questions you may have. You will also be asked how your experience and qualifications would be of benefit to the Board and to the community centre. 

Please note that the Kerrisdale Community Centre Society Conflict of Interest policy precludes staff, instructors, and employees of the Vancouver Park Board from serving on the Society Board of Directors. In order to limit potential Covid-19 exposures all interviews will be held either online or by telephone.
