The Board of Directors
Dan Bosserman
Board Member
I have lived in Boring for 45 years, having grown up eight miles away in Lower Logan. ln 1996 I began writing historical vignettes about the Sandy area. ln 2014 I published, through Arcadia Press, a pictorial history of Boring, and in 2015 one of Sandy, spending many hours of research in the Sandy Historical Museum. When a vacancy occurred in the Sandy Historical Society's board of directors, I was asked to join and leapt at the chance to be part of the Society's preservation of Sandy's history.
Doug Castle
Board Member
I was asked to serve on the board early in 2020. I am very interested in local History of Sandy and the Mt. Hood area, especially the Barlow Road extension of the Oregon Trail.
Kandy Clark
Board Member - Treasurer
I have always loved history and genealogy. I have worked at Clackamas County Bank in Sandy for over 42 years and have come to feel like l'm part of the community. Back then all the historical family names were still part of everyday life and were familiar faces around town. I have served on the board since 2014.
Austin Ernesti
Board Member
I moved with my family to Sandy in 2019 while pursuing a Masters's degree in Museum Studies; as a midwest farmboy, I have a fascination with Oregon Forestry and Resource Management. I believe that museums no longer end at the parking lot and community outreach is the future of museum work. Museums are the connection between where we were and where we are going as a people; we need to look both backward and forward at the same time to judge where we are going. The Sandy Historical Society Museum is a place that connects the stories of every person that has ever existed to the people that are here today and I know it will be there to connect us to all of those that are yet to be born.
Gary Moore
Board Member
I've been a board member since December, 2018. I am a retired prehistoric and historic Archaeologist and amateur blacksmith, and I wanted to lend my services to preserve local history. During my fifty plus years in the Archaeology business, I have had the opportunity to work closely (Board of Directors and collections research) with a number of museums across the country. I, also, had the opportunity to conduct Archaeological and Anthropological investigations on more than two dozen American Indian agencies and reservations. In fact, I was born on The Cheyenne and Arapaho Agency in Oklahoma (no, I'm not Cheyenne, but I am carried on their membership roles). The Seneca tribe adopted me in 1978 in Western New York. While doing Disaster Archaeology for FEMA, I was the Tribal Liaison for American Indian tribes in Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Illinois, Georgia, Kentucky, Texas, New Mexico, and Idaho. I offer my expertise for such needs here in Oregon.
