The City of Kelso has openings on the Park Board. All citizens within the City Limits of Kelso and over the age of 18 are eligible to apply. Minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.

 

Boards are a great way for citizens to give back to their community without committing to a great deal of time.

 

The Park Board meets once a month on the third Thursday of each month at 1:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers. The Park Board works with staff to ensure that citizens overall vision for the parks as described in the Park Master Plan are realized. This Board also works in an advisory capacity for the Council, making recommendations on park plans and other types of guiding documents pertaining to parks. This would be a great chance for anyone that would like to see our local park system flourish and meet the needs of generations to come.

 

All board positions are appointed by the Council. To apply go to the City’s website at www.kelso.gov [3] and click ‘Your Government’ and then ‘Boards and Commissions’. There you will find an application that you can print out.  After you have filled it out you can bring it in to the Operations Center at 2300 Parrott Way, mail it in, or email it to me at egeiszler@kelso.gov [2]. Applications are due by 4:30 p.m. on Monday, June 17th.
