Occupation: Youth Career Consultant

Education and Qualifications: I have lived in the Sacramento area since 1999 and I love the community. As an active member of Rotary, I believe in being active in community affairs for the growth and the development of family values.

Previously, I held staff management positions in government/public affairs, community relations, and cooperative education. It provided opportunity to do something for somebody else, to sense fulfillment which comes in the process and brings returns to one’s own life. If you elect me, I vow a tireless effort to drive projects forward improving community services for the enjoyment of families and friends.

Together we can effect change to the Cordova Recreation and Park District to make it a model park district and a vibrant part of our community. Please support me and I will support you!

Thanks for the comment. We look forward to watching the election unfold and covering the debate among the candidates. I would encourage you to send us a candidate statement, 100 words or less, for us to publish. In addition, any reader has the option to submit an article for publishing. The only requirement is that it relates to Rancho Cordova. We’ve made it convenient with an easy to use form on our submit news page.

PARKS BOARD (CRPB)!

IN NOVEMBER ELECT KENDALL (KEN) TOUGH, CORDOVA RECREATION AND PARKS, DIRECTOR.

• IS CORDOVA RECREATION & PARK DISTRICT MEETING THE COMMUNITY NEEDS?
