Serve on Advisory Board

Advisory Board members play a crucial role in our success by providing expertise and advice to committees that steer key areas of operations and planning. These may include:

  • Governance and legal
  • Events planning, music
  • Events planning, stage
  • Sponsor coordination
  • Community Partners coordination
  • Grant administration
  • Marketing and PR
  • Finance
  • Website maintenance
  • Volunteer coordination

Participation in specific organization committees must be agreed upon in advance, in cooperation with CPA partners. Committees will typically meet formally 4 times per year, with occasional informal communications by email or phone. A minimum 12-month commitment of service, and agreement to be recognized in CPA communications as an Advisory Board member. Advisory Board members receive 2 VIP tickets to CPA events.

Board Membership form

Serve on the Board of Directors

Board members are involved at the highest level in the governance and strategic planning of the organization, and play the most critical role in our long-term success. CPA maintains a high standard of expectations for participation of board members. These expectations include:

  • A minimum two-year commitment of service. CPA maintains a 3/1 policy: board members may serve for a maximum of three consecutive years, then must take one year of leave before having the opportunity to rejoin for another three years.
  • A pledge to commit skills and significant effort to support this important community organization.
  • An effort to consistently attend board meetings, which will occur 4-6 times per year.
  • An agreement, if asked, to participate on at least one committee and consistently attend the meetings of that committee.
  • Acknowledgement that the sustained and long-term success of our organization requires significant financial support through direct donations or solicitation of financial support from others in the community. A board member will commit to a “Give or Get” policy for $5,000 annually.
  • An agreement to support fundraising efforts by CPA’s staff by making introductions or, potentially, hosting a lunch or dinner meeting with your contacts in the community.
  • Agreement to be recognized in CPA communications as a Board member.

Members of the Board of Directors receive two VIP Season Passes to CPA events.
