PARKS – The Friends of Mount Spokane State Park board of directors is looking for new members.

The non-profit board has a maximum membership of 15 directors and serves as a link between the park manager and park visitors, says Cris Currie, president.

“It provides management recommendations to the park manager, organizes volunteer park projects and raises funds to help fulfill management plans for improved facilities and education within the park,” he said.

The group meets three to five times a year.

“We’re looking for people who have a passion for Mount Spokane and who can help represent recreational user groups as well as other interests including education, business, and environmental protection,” Currie said.

Applicants should email a letter of interest and qualifications to Currie at criscurrie22@gmail.com. Deadline for applications is Feb. 20.
