Introducing...

Abel Wright has joined the Maintenance staff, in the wastewater crew. He comes to us from Sherwood, where he worked in parks maintenance, and prior to that, the City of Eugene, in streets. Abel was born and raised in Clatskanie, and served ten years in the US Navy. He and his wife live in Sherwood with their four children, ages six through 12. They are all in youth sports, and Abel coaches flag football. Abel also enjoys boating and fishing. They have two dogs and a cat.



Chris Myers joined our library staff after spending the last 14 years

working as a librarian for the Oregon Episcopal School. He had earlier worked for Multnomah County, Beaverton and Oregon City libraries, and before that was an administrator for Central Catholic High School. He has a degree in history from Stanford University, and a MLS. Chris was born and raised in Portland, and spent a few years in Washington DC after college. He and his wife have three children ages 15 through 19. Chris enjoys playing golf, cooking, eating pie, watching old movies, and of course, reading. And to break a streak: he does not have a dog.
