ReplyDeleteMiguel and his family have been longtime residents of Redmond. Miiguel is a co-founder of the Redmond Historical Society and an officer and/or Newsletter Editor since it's existence. The society is now 10 years old is instrumental in building to our city's a cultural architecture. The Society's influence and impact is seen on RCTV, in City Hall exhibits, Public Safety Building art, city parks, our schools, the Saturday Market, Old Redmond School House Community Center. the Internet, naming city streams, and environmental stewardship. Two city Mayors and a longtime City Clerk are members.
Miguel was probably the youngest co-founder of the Society. His youthful exuberance and technical smarts has a lot to do with the success and influence of the Society. At semi-monthly meetings, Miguel will introduce speakers and runs the multi-media events. He participates in city events of significance, eg Derby Days, etc. Last year Miguel was nominated by the Mayor and appointed by the Council to the Heritage Commission. Miguel is an active Land Steward for the GREEN-REDMOND PARTNERSHIP.
Miguel Llanos is a major player in Redmond culture; and role model for many of our city's volunteer leaders.
