2021-2022 Board of Directors

Brian M. Wamsley

President

Brian and his wife Katt have called HV home since 2018. Brian is an IT Specialist at Samaritan Hospital and has experience in the hotel/B&B industry. Brian brings experience in relationship coaching. Brian has lived in an RV for 6+ years and knows the the realities of this type of living. After a few years of trying to find local, traditional housing, he and Katt realized - Where else can we live this close to the bay and be surrounded by such an amazing community? "I look forward to being a part of making this community even better, because a Cooperative is more than just me. It's an honor to be entrusted with this position. We have to be a team."

Pat Schaffner

Vice President, Coop Operations Manager/CASA Liaison

Pat lived on the RV side for several years before becoming a MH owner with wife and business partner, Teresa. Pat volunteered to serve on the board because he brings private business ownership experience including mining, construction and building application and operations. Pat most recently served as VP on the HVC interim Board where he took on Coop Operations Liaison role. "I've run a multi-million dollar family business with great success. I've served on boards and was President of my local Fire Department. 2021 has allowed me to apply that experience, work as a team and truly help the residents and improve Harbor Village."

Blanca Smith

Secretary, Resident Communication Liaison

Blanca has operated an Event Planning business and Staffing company in the Bay Area since 2010. She remotely manages 86 staff personnel. Blanca is also a Professional Interpreter for patients in the Lincoln County Samaritan Health System. She and Steve have lived in this beautiful community at Harbor Village since 2018. "I appreciate the opportunity to serve as your Resident Liason in helping build a strong sense of community and help develop and initiate creative solutions to better assist in and serve our Harbor Village Community."

Martin Desmond

Treasurer

Martin lived on the RV side for a year before purchasing the mobile home where he has lived for the past nine years. Martin was instrumental in initiating and becoming our representative for the HV residents once the park was put up for sale. He served as the Coop's Interim Treasurer and is back in that role. Martin truly understands the finances and how Coops work as well as the pressures from CASA and lenders. " We are on a challenging and difficult journey that now allows us to control our future. The challenge is learning to work together in developing policies, procedures and financial controls to keep the park livable for all of us. There will be times when there are sharp differences among the residents. We need to work together in a polite and courteous manner as the Board of Directors makes difficult decisions for the greater good and survival of the park.

Rachell Freshour

Member at Large

Rachell has lived on the RV side for 5 years. Her background includes managing two childcare centers at the Boeing Family Center in Everett, Washington for 15 years with my 10 years as the Office Manager. She was in charge of collecting tuition for 150 children and managed 35 staff members. Rachell coordinated families, staff meetings and parent and staff concerns. She ordered office and classroom supplies and was in charge of documentation, ensuring compliance with State regulations. "I was so happy we successfully were able to purchase our park and just love it here. Most people here just know me as the pug lady and that's fine with me."

Cheryl lives and has worked in the Harbor Village office for more than 7 years and knows the property well. She stepped in despite being on medical leave to keep the office open and work with the Board in the first days of ownership. The park could not have continued the daily operations without her dedication and love for HV. Cheryl's husband Mike not only assists neighbors but volunteers in maintaining park vehicles and infrastructure.
