Board Member Selection

CREW Sask is governed by a Board of Directors who set the strategic direction of the organization, implement and execute annual objectives, and ensure that our bylaws are being followed.

The Call for Nominations to the Board is issued in the spring of each year. Members may nominate themselves or others to the existing Nominating Committee.  For the positions on the Board, the Nominating Committee will consider in particular those who have demonstrated interest in serving and who have an understanding of goals and purposes of CREW Sask, which is typically gained from working on committees, or having been a Chair, or in a professional position which provides qualifications for a particular role.

All Board members are volunteers and we are appreciative of their time and effort in making CREW Sask a fantastic organization.
