Recreation must be available for everyone is the cornerstone of Lena Berry’s campaign for the Redmond Area Park and Recreation District board. She has been all over our community meeting with individuals, groups, community providers and RAPRD leadership and staff, listening to the stories and hopes of the people of Redmond.

Once elected, we can count on her continuing to show up to ensure that every voice in our community is heard. A refreshing part of Lena’s campaign is that she is highlighting the need for accessible facilities and recreation opportunities for the disabled community. She brings substance and specific ideas when talking to the voters about the need for inclusive recreation, fully accessible facilities, sensory rooms, adult changing tables, and providing one-to-one support staff. She has gone the extra mile to research and build relationships with community providers to learn how they can help fund the needs of the new recreation center and match grant funds.

While running for public office, Lena still finds the time to volunteer weekly in the community. Lena will bring commitment, tenacity, and vitality to the RAPRD board. She will be an advocate for our Recreation District Board we can all be proud of. Vote for the candidate that loves our community, shows up, and will bring actionable ideas of substance to the board room.
