The board · 5 neighbors

Five people,

one folding table.

Volunteer board, one year term, no salary. We meet when there’s something to talk about — usually a kitchen table; in summer, a porch. Members welcome. Minutes go in the newsletter.

Committees

We love a

committee.

Most of what DPWNA actually does happens in a committee — Arbor Day, the spring cleanup, the holiday potluck, the newsletter. The board mostly keeps the lights on.

Have an idea? You don’t need permission. Find two or three neighbors who care about the same thing, give it a name, and tell us. We’ll back it (potentially with a small budget), list it in the newsletter, and help you find more hands.

Pitch a committeeJoin one that exists

Or come to the next thing on the calendar and corner whoever’s holding the clipboard.
