Seeking Board Members.

We are in exciting times and opportunities for Tioga County and Develop Tioga. New community and economic opportunities are evolving, and new resources are in development. It is more vital than ever to have broad business and community participation, and diverse voices at the table to help guide our efforts and lead our strategic work for a strong and prosperous Tioga County.

We're pleased to announce that we’re openly seeking business and community members to serve on our Board of Directors. This is a great opportunity to inspire possibilities and support the Tioga County businesses and communities you love. Please consider whether this may be a good fit for you, nominate yourself or someone else, and help us spread the word to your networks!

Board transition.

With several board members' terms coming to an end this year and some retirements, we expect to add 3-5 new board members within the next 6 months. We aspire to be an organization that is of, by, and for Tioga County businesses and communities. We strive to have a Board of Directors that is inclusive and innovative, and actively represents Tioga County — this includes, but is not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, and geography. Help us ensure that Tioga County is a great place to start and grow a business, raise your family, and enjoy life.
