Board of Directors
Our current board is made up of talented and accomplished Glen Arden alumni who collectively bring hundreds of years of Glen Arden experience to the Alumni Association!
In addition to the current Camp Glen Arden director and owner Erin Graham and past directors Liz McIntosh, the board is comprised of a number of alumni who have volunteered to serve a single three-year term, with the option of serving a second consecutive three-year term.
We value a diverse representation of our alumni across the more than seven decades of Glen Arden, and especially look for alumni with experience in marketing/communications/social media, fundraising and development, event planning, accounting/CPA or legal background, leadership in alumni organizations, and other nonprofit experience.
Please let us know if you are interested! We would welcome the opportunity for you to participate in the board or in some other capacity for the Alumni Association!
