Dear Mayor and City Council members:
( {fy
of
Carmel by the Sea
N2 n5
Received by
ity lerk
Attached
is
my application to be considered for a position on the Community Activities & Cultural Commission.
My
husband's family has deep roots
in
Carmel, and when
we
were dating, he made
it
clear that Carmel
was
the only place
he wanted to ever call home. I grew up in the Bay Area, but from the first time I visited, I knew exactly what he meant.
We moved
home
in 2003, to raise our family, and plant our own roots in the community. Within the first week, my
husband volunteered
to
be a defensive coach
for
the Carmel High Varsity football team, and I reached out
to
local
community choral groups to find places to sing. Carmel
is
special, not just because
of
the beautiful landscape and
breathtaking views, but by what the community has to offer. My husband was already established here, but what I found
was
a warm, welcoming community filled with passionate people and a plethora of opportunities
to
be involved. Living in
Car mel
has
made me feel
as
if
I am a part
of
something greater than myself. I
want to
give back
to
my community, and I
feel joining the Community Activities & Cultural Commission
is
the best fit to utilize my skills and talents to serve Carmel.
I'd like to share with you a story of the day I knew Carmel was more than just a little city by the sea . A few years
ago, I was a school chaperone
for
a walking field
trip
from River School to downtown Carmel. With 24 enthusiastic third
grade
rs
, we walked- first through the Mission Trails, where we stopped and admired local birds,
and
greeted walkers
and
their
dogs. Our fir st official stop
was the
Outdoor Forest Theater, where we stopped
to
look at the memorial site
of
"Pal"
and learn about Carmel's dog. There were builders working on the set for the next production, and they
gave
us a tour of
the stage and set. They even
took
our picture Our next stop was supposed to be
the
Murphy House, but as we walked
past the fire station, a young firefighter stopped us and said, "Hello, Miss Gillooly " The students were shocked that this
man knew their teacher's name. It turns
out
, he had been a third grader at River School, and Miss Gillooly had been his
teacher
tool
The fire chief came
out with
little plastic fire hats, and we
got
a
tour
of the fire truck. They
also
took our
picture. Elated, we continued on, when an older man approached and said, "Hello, Pam "
Miss
Gillooly began to cry. It
was
HER
third grade teacher, from when she was a student at Woods School in Carmel. He told us stories of field trips
he
took with his
class
around Carmel.
He
gave the
class
advice. We, of course,
took
a picture. We arrived late
to
the
Murphy House, and
as
we approached, an old man with a scraggly beard was sitting outside polishing shells. He called
himself "Abalone Joe".
He
told the kids stories about abalone fishing, and ga ve us a little history about Carmel and
abalone. He taught the kids "The Abalone Song".
We
did eventually take
our tour
of
the
Murphy House, but what I took
away
that
day was far greater than the history lesson. Carmel isn't just a place to visit, or a place to live. It's a place to
belong.
That
is
why I want
to
be a
part
of the Community Activities Cultural Commission. The local events and cultural
activiti
es
define who
we
are
as
a community. We need
to
strive
to
maintain
the
greatness that is Carmel's history, but
also be open
to
fresh ideas that
our
next generations can build upon.
I look forward to talking with you about this opportunity.
Please
feel free to contact me with any questions.
