Furthermore, and among other tasks, board members shall (as per BATV, Inc.

  • Avoid becoming involved in day-to-day management decisions.
  • Acknowledge there are no privileges for serving on the board, only responsibilities.

1. All nominations shall be made in writing and submitted electronically to the
BATV Election Committee. Please email your nomination to
elections@batvinc.org and enter “Nomination” on the subject line.
2. As per the BATV By-Laws Article IV, Section 6, “As a rule, no individual under
the age of eighteen (18) shall serve as a member of the Board of Directors as per
Massachusetts General Law Chapter 231, Section 85O.”
3. Independent nominations may be made by any member in good standing.
4. Your nominee need not be a BATV member, but must live in, or be affiliated with
an organization, school or business that serves Billerica.
5. Your nomination must include nominee’s bio (not to exceed 300 words) to be

BATV Virtual Holiday Greetings!

It's BATV Holiday Greetings time again! Of course with this being a different kind of year,
BATV is offering a virtual Zoom Holiday Greetings Night on December 10th from 6-8 pm.
Drop-in anytime during those hours and BATV staff will be on hand to record your holiday greetings. Dress up in your favorite holiday attire, sing a song, read a poem, or just say "hi" to the community.
You can even just stop in to the Zoom meeting to say hi to staff and other members and/or simply watch. We will be editing and putting all of the Greetings together and airing them during the holidays. 


If you can't make that date and/or wish to do a Holiday Greeting on your own,
they can be 
submitted here. If you opt to film a greeting on your phone, we recommend
filming horizontally, in a well lit, quiet environment. Be sure to leave a couple of seconds at
the beginning and end of your recording so we can transition the footage as needed.
Be sure to submit them before the end of the day on Tuesday, December 15.


Thank you and we hope to see you all at the Zoom Holiday Greetings!

You can join the Zoom meeting here. If prompted for a passcode, it's 704491.
Feel free to 
RSVP to the Facebook Event for reminders.
