(Madison County, NY- Oct. 2013) Cornell Cooperative Extension of Madison County (CCE) is currently seeking volunteer board members to replace outgoing members. CCE prides itself in having a diverse board of directors with board members that represent many skill sets. We are especially looking for Madison County residents with legal, facilities, education, early childhood and nutrition or youth development experience.
Current board member Linda Wimmer commented on her first term.
“Being on the CCE Board for the past three years has proven to be one of the most rewarding experiences for me,” said Wimmer. “Community members should get involved and find out how important the cooperative extension is to our county.”
The mission of CCE is to improve the lives of individuals and communities through the practical application of objective, up-to-date, research-based knowledge. As an extension of Cornell University, we deliver accessible lifelong learning opportunities to audiences that include children, youth, families, landowners, and farm and business operators.
If you can contribute your time, expertise, and leadership one evening per month, please email a brief paragraph about your work and volunteer experiences and your interest in CCE to Debbie SeGuin, at dmv5@cornell.edu or call 684-3001, ext. 107.
