Visiting other <br />countries and riving through all but three states in the <br />U.S. have encourage me to learn more about the world as <br />does lessons learned from others who belong to the <br />variety of organization to which I belong. <br />No SUDDlemental Answers <br />In addition to our children, the local parks were the most <br />significant involvement of my adult life. As the first fulltime <br />landscape architect (hired 1963) and the Director of Parks <br />(from 1964 to 1994), my husband, Ed, was responsible for <br />developing most of today's bike and running trails, river <br />front parks (Alton Baker and Muarie Jacobs) and, with <br />other local parks directors and citizens, for promoting Mt. <br />Pisgah and the Willamette Greenway. Our travels also <br />illustrated the great value spaces dedicated to recreation <br />and public use add to the enjoyment, health and economic <br />well-being spaces dedicated to recreation and public use <br />add to the enjoyment, health and economic well-being of a <br />community's citizens. The Hult Center for the Performing <br />Arts and Hilton/Eugene Conference Center have taken our <br />city a new direction in economic development that has <br />encouraged a growth of performing arts groups of all <br />genres and more activity downtown. Development of the <br />downtown water front with options of dining, living, <br />shopping and opportunities for exercise, attending events <br />and open spaces for the public to gather will be a well used <br />benefit to our city. This is an exciting project for Eugene <br />and I would love to be a part of it. <br />Page 91 of 112 y C7 <br />
