Board Members

The major responsibilities of the Board are to help set Newport Classical’s strategic direction, to uphold its mission, to provide governance and oversight of its operations, and maintain the organization’s financial stability. Board members are public ambassadors for the organization and are vital to the organization’s ability to advance its mission. This is volunteerism at its finest, and the organization depends on its Board for their generous donation of time, energy, resources, and expertise for strength and advancement.
