NNBA Annual Meeting, Potluck, Election and Jam!
Saturday, February 17, 2024, 10am -3pm
It's a regular Family Reunion!
Jam, eat and vote ~ 10am-1pm
Annual meeting and election results ~ 1-3pm
As a non-profit, all volunteer organization, we are required to elect a volunteer Board of Directors each year. We recommend all NNBA members take at least a one-year turn on the Board, as a way to keep our organization fresh and inspired. The election takes place at this Annual Meeting, though the nomination process is open now (click here for nomination form).
What qualifications do you need to be on the NNBA Board? Mostly, just bring whatever strengths you have, or skills you've learned in your professional life or in school. An appreciation of Bluegrass music is important, but you don't need to be a player. People with organizational skills, computer skills, mechanical skills, accounting skills, leadership skills, decision-making and listening skills are all welcome.
The Board makes important financial and action-oriented decisions for NNBA, organizes events and then martials the resources to put the events on. Check out the Meeting Minutes of our Board meetings to see what we do. It's actually pretty fun to be a part of something that brings music and REAL LIFE social activities to our community. The Board meets once a month, so it's not a huge time committment (except for August, when we put on the Bowers Bluegrass Festival). To nominate yourself (or someone else), you just need to fill out a brief form, located here.
