Support Steve Goodman For LARPD Board

By Steve Goodman

I believe that my experience in the field of parks and recreation, my knowledge of LARPD as an employee for 17 years, and the fact that I have grown up here and been a part of the community for over 46 years will allow me to be an effective member of the LARPD board. I hope you agree and that you will support me in the upcoming election on November 2.

As I said, I have lived in Livermore for more than forty-six years. I grew up here, attended school here, from elementary through high school, and have raised my family here in Livermore. I have as BS degree in Recreation Administration from Cal State Hayward and have worked full time in the public recreation field for over twenty-six years, seventeen of those years with LARPD. I have been active in the community outside of my job in the following areas: as a Sunday school teacher and special events coordinator for my church; as a CYO basketball coach; as a volunteer at the LARPD Friendship Center; as a volunteer at the local high school softball tournament; as an announcer at the local high school basketball games; as a member of the LHS grad night committee; as a volunteer for an at-risk youth summer program sponsored by the City, LVJUSD, and LARPD; as a participant in the Almond School Read-A-Thon; and as a volunteer for the Wine and Honey Festival.

While employed with LARPD, I worked very closely with school district and city staff, as well as with community group leaders and local sports organizations. I believe that the relationships I have established with these individuals over the years will be invaluable to me if I am elected as a member of the board.

I love Livermore and I am passionate about its residents and their parks and leisure activities. I believe that my knowledge of public parks and recreation, of Livermore, and of LARPD would make me an effective board member.

I humbly ask for your support in the election on November 2 for a position on the LARPD Board of Directors

Thank you.
