Cranbrook seeks volunteers for library, theatre board roles

The City of Cranbrook is encouraging residents to take action in their community by volunteering to serve on one of the Cities advisory committees in the new year. 

“Serving on a committee is a rewarding way to get involved and share your expertise.”
the city said.

The city’s recruitment earlier this fall did not reach enough volunteer applications to fill the available positions. Remaining roles are with the Cranbrook Public Library Board and the Key City Theatre Society.

Participation is open to all residents of Cranbrook and the application deadline has been extended until Nov. 26.

Three positions are available with the Cranbrook Public Library Board, which oversees the library’s governance and operations. Application details are available at cranbrookpubliclibrary.ca or cranbrook.ca.

One position remains with the Key City Theatre Society. One of nine directors of the Society’s board is selected by the City Council. The individual selected will provide regular updates regarding the Society’s operation to City Council.

Instructions for all city advisory committees and volunteer application forms are available at https://cranbrook.ca/our-city/mayor-and-council/committees.

Completed applications can then be submitted to City Hall through Kelly Thorsteinson or emailed to thorsteinson@cranbrook.ca  

All applications must be submitted by Wednesday, Nov. 26, at 4 p.m.
