Steering Committee Chair: I'm a local architect and although we live in Capitol Hill, my daughter attends the Spruce Street School the denny triangle--one of very few urban elementary schools. With my daughter and her many classmates in mind, I have been part of the Denny park for two years. As chair of the steering committee my focus is very much on creating a vibrant outdoor space that represents the changing demographics of downtown Seattle. [Email Elizabeth] eg@urbanmixseattle.com

Media Relations : Over the past seven years I’ve helped on several park projects. I enjoy volunteering on civic projects that benefit our neighborhoods. Being a steering committee member gives one a sense of what it takes to renew a city park. Plus, it gives satisfaction that you have input in a park that future generations will enjoy for decades. I encourage others to join the steering committee or a sub-committee on improving this historic and important city park. We seek your help, knowledge and resources to transform this stately park into a proper green space in the revitalized Denny neighborhood. [Email Jim] famsykes@comcast.net

Website Maintenance: I'm a recent owner/resident at The Cosmopolitan Condominiums in Denny Triangle. I love the urban essence of my new neighborhood and I'm optimistic about its future. However, there are very few green spaces nearby. Working with the Re-envisioning Denny Park crew is a way for me to contribute to the resurrection of our only neighborhood and open space. I'm also interested and making Denny Park dog friendly. Send an email if you have any questions, suggestions, or requests about the website: cliffordtatum [at] yahoo [dot] com.

Dog Outreach : I'm all about Urban Dog Presence. We dogs are increasing in numbers within the downtown core, yet our favorite grassy areas are decreasing in size and quantity. My role on the committee is to increase awareness about the relationship between urban growth and increased population of urban dogs. Come to my blog and join the urban dog movement.
