Board Members

The Vancouver Finlandia Club Board is made up entirely of volunteers. Thank you to everyone, past & present who has donated their time to help keep the club running! The board is a group of individuals, elected each year at our Annual General Meeting.

The board is instrumental in panning events and activities – but we are always grateful for additional support. Board meetings are held on the 3rd Thursday of every month, at the Scandinavian Community Centre or via Zoom – VFC members are always welcome to join meetings as a guest.

The VFC Board works hard to continue to provide quality programming for members and the general public – but we’re always looking for new ideas! Please reach out to any board member or [email protected] if you would like to help out or offer a suggestion.
