Board Application

There are four 2-year Community Representative board seats available beginning in January 2026. Applications will be accepted until November 20, 2025. The Board of Education will then review applications and appoint the new members to the Community Recreation Advisory Board at their December 22 regular meeting.

The Community Recreation Advisory Board was formed in 2021 as a way to gather input from representatives of the many stakeholders in our community. As a way to reach the many areas of the Fennville community, the Advisory Board established a grant program to enhance how the community experiences Fennville Recreation. Grants can be given for projects such as community park improvements, recreation sports needs, etc.

This board will also be able to purchase, in coordinating with the Director of Community Recreation, materials and equipment for community recreation purposes. Board members should be willing to commit to at least one meeting monthly.
