Town of Exeter Board and Committee Vacancies

Joining a board, committee or commission is a great way to learn about our hometown, volunteer your time and talents, and meet Exeter neighbors. 

Watch our video playlist to learn more about the various boards, committees, and commissions in Exeter.

 

To learn more about each of the boards, committees and commissions, please see the files listed below or contact the Town Manager's office (773-6102 or pmcelroy@exeternh.gov).
