BOD & Chair Descriptions
FLOW is continually growing and looking for fellow community members to serve on our Board and committees. The FLOW Board comprises a diverse group of enthusiastic volunteers who work together to support the Nesmith Library in various ways. We meet once per month (September through May) to plan events such as the Strawberry Festival, book fairs, and family events like the Build a Buddy Workshop. We collaborate and discuss ways to increase community awareness about all the Nesmith Library offers and how we can best serve to support a wide range of needs. We hope that you will consider a position on our Board.
