We are an accredited local history museum located in a mid-sized city in
North Carolina, municipally-operated but with a private membership and
privately-elected Board of Trustees.

Part of our newly-adopted strategic plan involves our trustees selecting a
Community Advisory Board to "provide advice and assistance to the work of
the Museum, and to facilitate dialogue with the community at large"

Your comments on experience with creating and working with a community
advisory board in areas of:
*selection criteria
*advisory board structure and operations
*frequency of meetings
and any other "do's and don't's" would be much appreciated ...
