Clark County is seeking a volunteer to serve on the Parks Advisory Board. The open position is for an unexpired term that begins immediately and ends Dec. 31, 2025.

Board members serve three-year terms. Upon expiration of a term, a member can apply again. There is no limit on how many terms a member can serve.

The board advises the county council and staff on parks planning, acquisition, development and related issues. Applicants must be residents of Clark County.

The county is looking for applicants from historically underserved or underrepresented populations including residents who can bring ethnic, cultural and geographic diversity to the group. A board member located in north Clark County or in the unincorporated area of Clark County is preferred to assist with geographic diversity.

The board meets from 4-6 p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month, typically at the Luke Jensen Sports Complex in the LJSP Bud Van Cleve Community Room, 4000 N.E. 78th St., Vancouver.

To apply, submit a brief letter of interest and résumé to Michelle Pfenning, County Manager’s Office, P.O. Box 5000, Vancouver, WA 98666-5000 or by email at michelle.pfenning@clark.wa.gov.

The application deadline is 5 p.m. Aug. 16.
