- The camp is governed by fifteen volunteer directors who are elected by the general camp membership at the annual corporate meeting in September. Comprised of three committees, the Board of Directors meet monthly in various locations between Kearney and Council Bluffs to discuss, plan, and make decisions for the direction, needs, and future of Nebraska Youth Camp.
- Those interesting in running for a seat on the Board of Directors must submit a bio to Judy Pierce at edddiej@aol.com by August 1st. Potential Board members must be a current corporate member.
- For detailed information about Board requirements and regulations, please refer to the Nebraska Youth Camp Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation.
- If you are interested in serving on the Board or have some great ideas, please contact us! We would love to hear from you.
