Save Brainerd Develops Committees, Seeks Volunteers

The directors of Save Brainerd hope the Brainerd Building will be renovated into a
community center that will serve the area well. The board also wants to serve
the community in the best possible way, and to that end, is undergoing a bit of
restructuring into a committee-centric organization. We hope that by doing
this, we will use time more efficiently and involve more community members in
the daunting challenge of creating a functional center for the arts, education,
and community gathering. Committee meetings will be flexible, depending on the
members, and group meeting time will be kept at a minimum.

The committees being formed include Building and Grounds/Maintenance; Grant
Writing; Public Relations, Communication and Marketing; Special Events; Policy and Procedure; Alumni Relations; Finance; Fund Raising; and Festival. Each
committee will be chaired by board members, but needs volunteers to help
provide fresh ideas and helping hands.
