- VOLUNTEER & CIVIL INVOLVEMENT-MINDED WORKERS NEEDED:
- Cemetery Committee is in need of several different kinds of help. Are you interested in the historical aspects of our two graveyards? We are looking for someone to work on a historical compendium documenting some of the more interesting gravesites. Are you a photographer? We need to update the file of gravestone photographs. Do you have working experience with spreadsheets, in particular Microsoft's Access? We need to switch from Excel to a spreadsheet that can be more specifically queried. Last but not least, just want to be involved with the cemeteries? Do you have family or friends buried in either North or East Cemetery? We need more volunteers on the Cemetery Committee, and we would like individuals to adopt sections of a cemetery to recommend improvements to the board for their assigned area. Contact Supervisor Amy Ferris.
- Budget & Finance is a subcommittee that has never taken shape before but is needed. Pending approval of the board, this committee would serve as another layer to our government's system of checks-and-balances and could help to steer the township's formation of budgets, financial reporting, review and more. Details as to the scope of the work would need to be defined. If you're interested, contact Supervisor Amy Ferris.

ALSO NOTE: If positions on these or other positions/committees/commissions are already filled, we would still like to know of your possible interest, regardless. For those areas of service already filled, we would keep your name on file as a possible appointee should an opening appear. For all others, we have vacancies and encourage you to make your contribution to your local government. Note that your willingness to serve doesn’t necessarily guarantee your appointment, but all applications will be considered. Questions about the amount of knowledge, time and/or energy needed to making a commitment? Contact Amy Ferris, Township Supervisor, at (231) 352-9791 or [email protected].
