(BIA) is excited to announce the full roster of volunteers that will comprise the Old Town Kemptville BIA Board of Management. Having recently been officially appointed by Council, the Board will begin work immediately on planning and directing the efforts of the BIA for their four-year term.

The new volunteer directors for the Board of Management of the Old Town Kemptville are as follows: Meagan Cumming, Courtney Vezina, Dave Leger, Sierra Jones-Martel, Shelley Mitchell and Deputy Mayor John Barclay. The Board will continue to be supported by BIA Executive Director Deron Johnston and volunteer financial advisor Andrew Beveridge.

The Board will conduct its meetings on a monthly basis. These meetings are public meetings that anyone can attend including local media, BIA members and members of the public. The date, time and location for each meeting will be posted on the Old Town Kemptville Facebook page usually at least a week in advance.

Women Who Care North Grenville” as the fund to receive their donation. This system automatically generates a tax receipt, making the whole operation that much easier. Please do not choose to be anonymous.

We don’t stop at 100 women: in fact, the more the merrier! We are looking to make the biggest local and immediate charitable impact we can. Reminder that 100% of the proceeds go towards the chosen charities that night. Join us for the North Grenville Chapter of this amazing charity and help bring positive change to your community.

For more information on 100 Women Who Care North Grenville, visit them on Facebook advance. There is a special section on each meeting’s agenda where submitted questions or comments are discussed by the Board.

If you’d like to learn more about other volunteer opportunities with the BIA including volunteering at one of our many events (Kemptville Buskerfest, Kreepy Kemptville etc.) or joining a BIA sub-committee (such as the Marketing & Programming Committee), just send a quick email to learn more.
