Lassen Park Foundation (LPF) is looking for individuals to serve on the Board of Directors.
The LPF Board oversees all activities of the Foundation including our Youth Camping Program, assistance with fundraising, oversight of capital projects at the park (like the Volcano Adventure Camp).
They work with Lassen Volcanic National Park to develop new educational opportunities, build partnerships with local universities that result in expanded opportunities within the park for learning and research, and help fill the funding gap for trail maintenance, scientific research and staff training.
The LPF Board meets three times annually at various locations in Northern California and, depending on which committees a board member volunteers to serve, via occasional conference calls. They also play important roles in overseeing the Foundation’s major annual fundraising events such as the Peak Experience Auction.
Candidates are interviewed by the Nominations Committee where they are encouraged to share their thoughts about Board participation and ask questions in order to better understand the roll of an LPF Board Member. Once a candidate has completed these steps, consideration by the full board occurs and accepted candidates are elected to a three-year term.
If you are interested in serving as an LPF Board Director and being more closely involved in helping Lassen Volcanic National Park or know someone who is, please call our office at (530) 378-2600 or e-mail LPF Executive Director, Jennifer Finnegan at jennifer@lassenparkfoundation.org to request request more information and download our Board Candidate Inquiry.
