Jensen-Olson Arboretum Advisory Board (JOAAB)

General Information

The Jensen-Olson Arboretum Advisory Board meets quarterly on the second Wednesday in the Mendenhall Valley Library at 5:15 p.m. unless otherwise noted.

The Board will advise on the Arboretum’s guiding vision as provided by Caroline Jensen: “The vision of the Arboretum is to provide the people of Juneau a place that both teaches and inspires learning in horticulture, natural sciences, and landscaping; to preserve the beauty of the landscape for pure aesthetic enjoyment; to maintain the historic and cultural context of the place and its people.” The board shall advise and assist the Director of Parks and Recreation on issues including, but not limited to, capital campaigns and fund raising, and programmatic direction consistent with the guiding vision above.

Please call Parks & Recreation for additional information at 586-5226.  If you cannot attend, you may send your comment by email to parks.rec@juneau.org
