In the past I volunteered with the City of Miramar business licensing department. I was a member of a Rotary
Club for many years and served a term as president. I was active in the past with the local Chamber of
Commerce in Pembroke Pines/Miramar where I participated in a Leadership course. As my business grew I found
that I had less and less time for volunteer work but I as I am getting closer to retirement I would like to get back
into volunteering and "give back" so to speak to the great City of Tamarac which I have fallen in love with over the
past 9 years.

Good afternoon Mary Jo,
I know you applied for the Public Art Committee while Commissioner Fishman was in
office, and I just wanted to double check something with you. Did Commissioner
Fishman recommend that you also apply for Sister Cities? If so, did you want me to roll
your application over for consideration on that Committee.
Thank you for your patience.
Jen
