The BCE Event Advisory Board Executive Committee
The Advisory Board is led by an Executive Committee, made up of 2 – 4 members. These volunteers contribute substantially to The Burlington Clothes Exchange event by facilitating Advisory Board meetings and communications, recruiting and training new Advisory Board members, selecting our beneficiary and taking a leadership role in event fund raising and event execution.  In addition to attending Advisory Board meetings, Executive Committee members should expect to meet monthly.
