Board of Directors

Board of Directors

There are 7 committees and one Board of Directors that make up Thunder Bay District Crime Stoppers. The committees approve rewards for tips, develop and implement fund raising programs and help promote Crime Stoppers in their respective communities. The 7 committees are located in:

• Thunder Bay
• Nipigon-Red Rock
• Schreiber/Terrace Bay
• Marathon
• Manitouwadge
• Geraldton
• Longlac

The main function of the Board of Directors is to ensure that the Crime Stoppers program is being run properly and that guidelines and policies are being adhered to. The chair from each of the committees is automatically a member of the Board of Directors, with the other positions being filled by individuals who are elected at the Crime Stoppers annual general meeting.

The official mascot for Thunder Bay District Crime Stoppers is "Tipper" a 21 year old raccoon.  Tipper can be seen at a number of Crime Stopper events throughout the District.
