Foundation Board of Directors
The foundation has a volunteer board of 13 community leaders serving from several surrounding towns. Each director brings to the group a diversified degree of educational background, talent, business experience, and opinions. This ensures the foundation board has a solid background in decision making processes and a full understanding of the foundation and Barton Community College's mission statements. Each will serve a three-year term and has the option of serving two terms before stepping down for at least one year.
