Okay, I am not an HOA board member. But I have a relative who is. He is a lawyer, and for him, it is a great thing, since he knows how to work systems in accordance with the rules (he is a very capable lawyer). He can also keep them from making terrible legal mistakes that can cost a lot of money.
So, I would say it depends on your particular skill set, what sorts of issues and personalities you are likely to deal with if you sign up, and what will happen if someone else takes the position instead.
Not overly helpful, perhaps, but really a lot depends on the sort of person you are, and what sorts of things bother you, and what sorts of things you are good at doing.
