At the December 17 Bend Park and Recreation District’s board meeting, six applicants were selected as finalists for the vacant board position.
The finalists were selected from a pool of 24 applicants who submitted cover letters and responses to six questions.
Finalists are:
Amy Fraley
Deb Schoen
Judith Stiegler
Karen Berky
Linda Crouse
Zavier Borja
Finalists will be invited to make five-minute presentations with brief questions and answers at the January 7 board meeting.
“We had some outstanding applications,” said Nathan Hovekamp, vice chair. “I want to thank the applicants for their time. It’s heartening to see that level of interest from community members.”
A selection is expected at the January 7 meeting, and the new board member will be sworn in at the January 21 meeting.
