I have read and understand the duties and responsibilities of the particular osition(s) that I am applying for and authorize the release of this information on the D to Special Qualifications Particularly Appropriate for an Appointment to the Board of Trustees Library I am a great supporter of libraries. In my youth I found adventure, knowledge and friendship in the library. Those three qualities are why as an educator and former elementary school teacher I taught my students, nephews and nieces, the library is as great as Disneyland. You can find anything in the library. I feel that I would like to be a part of the community and become more involved in civic leadership as a Library Trustee. I feel the written word on paper; in books, magazines and newspapers not get engulfed and lost within the technologies available today. It is important as decision makers and leaders that we balance technology and paper. As I stated before I have and still do value what I can find in the library and I would like to continue to make that available to my community members, young and old. I currently hold a seat on the Board of Directors for Leadership Tomorrow in the capacity of Vice Chairperson and previously, the Program Chair for the 05 -06 year. Leadership Tomorrow is a program designed to help people become more engaged their communities. Many of our graduates become volunteers in civic organizations, attain appointments to Boards or Commissions and even run for elected office. I was a member of the Class of 2004 in Leadership Tomorrow and was asked to serve on the Board of Directors upon graduation. Several current Council members and Commissioners are graduates of our program in Costa Mesa, Irvine and Newport Beach including Mr. Rosansky and Mr. Adams. I served as the Vice Chair of the Entertainment Committee for the Kick -off event for the year- long Newport Beach Centennial Celebration. Our committee was charged with providing the entertainment for the event which included the main stage and two additional venues with the Dunes complex. The headliner band, "the Beach Boys performed for a sell -out crowd of over 8000 people. The event was the largest of its kind ever sponsored by the city of Newport Beach. Currently, I am serving on the Entertainment Committee for the Newport Beach Centennial Celebration in October as well as the McFadden Square Project with Bernie Svalstad. Also, I served as Vice Chair on Special Events Committee for the Corona del Mar Centennial Celebration. Our committee was charged with the Corona del Mar Beach Party and Expo held on the weekend of October 16th and 17`h' 2004. Those activities included a number of first for Newport Beach, a live concert at Corona del Mar State Beach, a vintage boat parade and a fireworks display over the mouth of the harbor. Also, I have been a volunteer at the Taste of Newport Beach sponsored by the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce, since 2002. submitted, - 1/) W
