Board of Directors
Our Bond
Since 1933, Clearwater Camp has been developing strong, capable girls and young women, guided by its mission to foster confidence, courage, compassion, and community – the four points on the Clearwater compass. This timeless and enduring mission is the bond that binds us; it’s also the inspiration that drives the Clearwater Board of Directors.
Who We Are
Members of the Clearwater Board of Directors come from a variety of professional backgrounds, skills, ages, and strengths. We are a mix of camper alums, former staff, and camper parents. Some of our board members work full-time, others part-time, and some are active retirees and volunteers.
Core to all we do as a board lies in our commitment to camp’s vision: to provide the Clearwater Camp experience to as many girls as possible, knowing it makes a difference in their lives, and they will make a difference in the world.
What We Do
The board upholds camp’s mission, provides financial oversight, shapes strategic priorities, acts to protect camp’s natural environment, and ensures resources for all aspects of camp, including facilities, programming and staffing.
We are an active board, dedicated to camp’s mission and purpose. Clearwater’s board consists of 11 – 17 members who meet throughout the year as a full board. Separately, members serve on at least two committees. Our board committees are a practical way to structure and manage the board’s work and support strategic goals.
Board members play an important role representing Clearwater when engaging with our community and beyond. Board members are elected to serve a term of three years, and may be re-elected for up to three terms.

How to Get Involved
The board is a dynamic group, sharing a love for Clearwater Camp and a commitment to its future. We welcome members of our Clearwater community who are interested in becoming involved with the board to consider project or committee work as a first step.
The Alum Action Team (AAT), camp’s cross-generational volunteer group, provides ways for alums to stay active in the Clearwater community through project-based work. Find out more about ways to become involved in projects through AAT under the Alumni tab.
For those who would like to become more involved in board service, but cannot commit to full-board participation, there are opportunities to serve as non-board members on select committees, as-needed. Serving on a board committee is an excellent way to contribute your skills and talents while getting to know board members and becoming familiar with the work of the board. Let us know more about your interests on the Board Committee Form.
We are always interested in tapping into our extensive and expanding Clearwater network for possible board members. If you know someone with a passion for the Clearwater mission; who has specific skills that may benefit the board; is open-minded, accepting, collaborative; and has the available time to serve on the board, we would be interested in learning more about that person – and that person could be you! We welcome your nominations, including self-nominations via the Board Nomination Form.
