Get Involved in YOUR Community

Volunteer with BHA!

Did you know that BHA currently has seven volunteer committees? Volunteers are your BHI neighbors who give their valuable time to help BHA, fellow property owners and Bald Head Island. This is a great way to get involved on this beautiful island! At the beginning of each year, committee terms expire, and new volunteers are needed.

The 2024 committee rosters are on the website, and you can read more about each committee as well as each committee’s Bylaws charges and goals here!

Listed below are the committees and the number of volunteers needed for each:

• Architectural Review Committee (ARC) Sections A and B — 11 volunteers
• Education and Recreation (ER) Committee — 2 volunteers
• Resource Conservation and Beautification (RCB) Committee — 2 volunteers
• Long Range Planning (LRP) Committee — 2 volunteers
• Finance Committee — 2 volunteers
• Nominating Committee — 6 volunteers
• Community Wide Standards (CWS) Committee — 4 volunteers

If you would like to volunteer, fill out the volunteer application here!

A big thank you goes out to all of our hard-working volunteers!
