The Union is seeking new board members

Are you interested in making Boston the bike-friendliest city in the nation? Do you have the skills needed to help continue the Boston Cyclists Union’s role as a major catalyst of that change? If so, the board of directors is looking for you.

The Union’s board is comprised of a diversity of talented people; young, old, experienced and new. If you believe have a valuable perspective to add, some relevant experience, and can commit to spending some time each week helping us improve the Union, you are eligible and encouraged to apply.

2013 will be an amazing year for the Union, and this winter the board will be crafting a strategic plan. Board members meet once a month and are also expected to participate in at least one committee and take part in the Union’s programs. Board members help carry out research, organize events, and do other tasks like keeping the Union’s finances in order (with the help of accountants and other consultants), fundraising (including a personal donation), volunteer wrangling, and networking with communities all over Boston.

Strategic Planning

The Union is growing in all ways — the number of projects we’re working on, volunteer opportunities, and more.
