RE: Mason County Parks and Trails Advisory Board Openings
The Board of Mason County Commissioners is seeking applications from community members
who are interested in serving on the Mason County Parks and Trails Advisory Board.
The Mason County Parks and Trails Advisory Board provides recommendations to the Board of
Commissioners regarding the planning, acquisition and development of parks, trails and related
programs in Mason County.
The Parks and Trails Advisory Board is a seven -member board appointed by the Mason County
Commissioners. Ideally there would be two positions from each Commissioner District and one
at- large position. If the vacancies cannot be filled with members from the respective districts as
desired, at -large members residing anywhere in Mason County can be substituted. The intent is
to provide equal geographic representation from throughout Mason County if possible. Currently
we have three 2nd district representatives, and two 3rd district representatives. We are in need of
two members.
If you have an interest in parks, trails, or other outdoor recreational opportunities and would like
to make a difference in your community you are encouraged to apply.
The Mason County Parks and Trails Advisory Board meets the fourth Thursday of each month
at 4:00 PM. Interested citizens may obtain an application at the Mason County Commissioners'
Office, 411 North 5th Street, Shelton, or by calling Shelton 360- 427- 9670, ext. 419 or visit the
Mason County website at https://masoncountywa.qov. Applications will be accepted until
positions are filled.
