Community Engagement Committee – Now Forming!

The Town of Preble is launching a new Community Engagement Committee, and we’re looking for residents who want to help bring our community together.

This committee will work with the Town Board to share ideas and recommendations on parks, recreation, seasonal events, volunteer coordination, youth and family activities, and ways to strengthen connections across Preble. The goal is to support simple, meaningful opportunities that enhance quality of life for residents of all ages.

The Town Board will appoint five residents who submit an application. If you’d like to get involved and help shape community engagement in Preble, we encourage you to apply!

Applications are available at the Town Hall Office or downloaded here.
