Wilton BOE & Social Services Commission Need Volunteers

If you're interested in giving back to the school, youth and senior community in town, the Wilton Republican Town could use your help.

James Saxe, chairman of the Wilton RTC HEW Search Committee, submitted the following:

The Wilton Republican Town is seeking individuals who would be interested in volunteering to fill positions on the Board of Education and Commission on Social Services. Both positions would become effective December 1, 2013.

The Commission on Social Services advises the Selectman and the Department of Social Services on the current and future need for social services in town. The commission meets monthly to discuss senior citizen and youth issues, long range planning, and other issues that affect the general welfare of the town. The ideal candidate would be someone who is committed and interested in the welfare of Wilton Citizens.

The Wilton Board of Education consists of six members who are elected to 4 year staggered terms. The Board of Education acts as the bridge between the community and the towns schools which they are responsible for governing. The Board of Education meets monthly on the second and fourth Thursday of each month. The ideal candidate would have children of school age in the Wilton School system, and have a general knowledge of finance and the budgeting process.

If you are interested in interviewing for one of these voluntary positions, please email your resume and cover letter expressing interest by July 15th to jasaxe@optonline.net or mail to Wilton Republican Town Committee, P.O. Box 301, Wilton, CT 06897.
