    The strength of our organization rests in the contributions of the community. We are planning for our next year and we're looking for a few good folks! Coming this spring, we will have several positions opening on our Board of Directors, with service terms beginning in May.

    We immediately have needs for members of committees that will serve in specific areas to help our neighborhood thrive.

    See our openings and opportunities below. If you have interest in any of these positions, or know somone who may be a good fit, please email President@fandistrict.org and we will give you more details and get you connected.

    Board of Directors Positions

    As a board member, you are responsible for Committee oversight and leadership plus overall strategic direction for the FDA. There are three board opportunities. We are seeking interested community members to serve as board members representing these committees:

    Membership: Oversees membership growth and welcoming new Fan residents. Coordinates with Zone Captains for block events.

    Program and Events: Directs the planning and execution of community programs and events throughout the year, previous events include National Night Out, Fan Night at the Diamond. Coordinates and plans the Annual Meeting. Partners with Fan Arts Stroll and Holiday House Tour event organizers

    Treasurer: Provides financial oversight to the organization, working closely with our hired accountant and tax preparer. This role focuses on governance and reporting, not day-to-day bookkeeping.

    Board members are expected to attend our monthly board meetings, which occur on the third Monday of each month from 7-9 p.m. A board term is three years.

    Board positions are elected by our membership at our annual meeting in May and will begin service thereafter.

    Sub-Committee and Volunteer Roles

    These roles are focused on specific projects and initiatives that directly benefit our neighborhood.
