Management of the Waldo County YMCA is vested in a volunteer Board of Directors.  Board members (directors) owe a legal fiduciary duty to the Waldo County Y and shall act only in the Y’s best interest.  Directors must respect the confidentiality of board deliberations and shall support decisions by the board.  

​

The board actively recruits new board members and welcomes applicants with suitable skills and experience to help the Y grow services in the community.  New board members are elected by a majority vote of the Board of Directors and hold office for three years.  Directors may be reelected for up to two additional terms for a maximum of nine consecutive years. Board membership size is limited, so not all applicants may be elected.  By-laws include provisions for resignation from office, leave of absence, or removal from office as appropriate. The 2025 recruitment cycle for adult BOD members has been completed, please check in spring of 2026 for information on applying next year.

​

 The Board of Directors meets monthly at 7 PM on the third Monday of the month, with exceptions for holidays. Meetings are either in person at the Waldo County Y or via ZOOM.  In addition to attending regular board meetings, directors are appointed to serve on committees or task forces, based on their skills, experience, and interests.  Acceptance as a board member includes joining membership of the Waldo County YMCA.

If you have additional questions about the Board of Directors, please leave your request for contact from the Chief Volunteer Officer (CVO) at the Waldo County YMCA front desk.
