Valley. In 2000, Ed was a big part of helping to put Carousel Ranch on the map. Because of his efforts,
Carousel Ranch was awarded Charity of the Year in 2000. Ed’s involvement through the years grew, not only as
an advocate for the work that they do, but as a volunteer, advisor, and friend. Ed has assisted them as a liaison
with Assemblyman Cameron’s Smyth’s office and as a board liaison for his current employer, Derek Sage, while
he served on the board. Since beginning at SOS, Ed has worked every year to handle Carousel’s lighting and
sound for the annual Heart of the West event. Ed was a founding board member of WiSH and continues to be
a significant, contributing member. Ed’s broad knowledge of our community lends itself to an understanding
of what one needs to do to best support the students of the Santa Clarita Valley. He offers significant nonprofit,
in-kind donations. On game day and every day, Ed is the first one there, setting up, and the last one to leave,
breaking down. He more than makes up his weight in sweat equity at every single event he supports.
