Hugo City Council, <br /> <br />I would like to express my interest in the Parks and Recreation Commission Chair that was recently <br />vacated. I believe I am an ideal candidate for this opening and my fellow Commissioners agreed and <br />encouraged me to express my interest in this position. <br /> <br />I believe this position offers me an excellent opportunity to give back in a unique way to my community <br />and to use my experience to help Hugo continue to maintain and improve our parks, trails, and <br />recreation programming. I have had the opportunity to work in professional sports, higher education, <br />and nonprofits. I have extensive experience in fundraising, volunteer management, and event <br />production. It is this unique work history that I believe makes me well suited for the Chair position. <br /> <br />I enjoy spending my free time outdoors – fishing, hunting, hiking and photographing nature. I cherish <br />the time I’ve spent exploring the wilds of Minnesota and beyond; from watching a moose calf swim <br />across a lake to identifying wildflowers along the trail, or the power I felt paddling a canoe against the <br />wind, all helped to make me who I am today. <br /> <br />I have enjoyed my first year on the Parks Commission and learning more about the City of Hugo and our <br />neighborhood parks system. I would appreciate the opportunity to deepen this connection while serving <br />as the Chair of the Parks Commission. <br /> <br />Meredith St Pierre <br />
