TRRA Boards

Service in the Board of Directors is an excellent way to meet, and in fact exceed, one’s volunteer obligation to TRRA. The Board meets on the fourth Thursday evening of each month at 6:15 PM, usually at the Millvale Training Center. Most Board members will also serve on a Board subcommittee or Board task force as well as volunteer their time at various TRRA events.

As with any non-profit Board, the Board has responsibility for developing policy, assuring the financial health of TRRA, and overseeing the execution of the organization’s goals and objectives. Most Board members are also members and row, paddle, and/or exercise regularly at TRRA. As such, they are also the ‘eyes and ears’ of the organization and provide the other Board members and staff with very valuable feedback. Membership on the Board of Directors is open to anyone interested in volunteering their time to TRRA.

A good way to be introduced to service on the Board is to volunteer on one of the Board Committees. All Board of Directors are elected by the full time membership of TRRA with the exception of the representative of the Board of Governors and the Scholastic Rowing Organization (SRO), which are appointed.
