Since retirement from the railroad in 2007, Ken has been active in several volunteer positions in the local community and beyond, including the past 11 years as a director on the board of the Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation. There he has held the positions of Vice-Chairperson 2009-2010, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors, 2010-2012 and Secretary 2012-2019.
Judy has always liked variety in life, which shows in her past business careers as well as her personal hobbies. Past work experiences include event management, print media and advertising, and proof reading. Now that retirement has opened up all kinds of time and opportunities, she explores her creative talents through the making of sterling silver and fashion jewellery, as well as creating macrame wall hangings and knitted accessories. Judy looks forward to applying her work experience to benefit the SSAC as a whole, its members, and to help continue educating our community through the arts.
Taylor has a passion for painting, focusing in acrylics. She believes that all forms of art are a great way to express oneself. With a background in accounting she brings a wealth of knowledge to the board. She hopes to help the SSAC be successful in providing everyone access to discovering the arts and all they have to give.
