THE MONTPELIER COLLECTIVE

THE BOARD MEMBERS

Our operations and efforts are overseen by a dedicated, non-paid Board of Directors. This board is supported by diligent student volunteers who manage various administrative duties. Our funding comes from the generous contributions of our alumni, fans, supporters, residents, and businesses that have ties to the Shenandoah Valley.
