renée liston - 2003 (covell)
Liston has had a major impact on Davis since coming here:
—Cub Scout Pack 111: Registrar-Treasurer 1994–97. So involved with programs, support that it took three people to replace her
—University Farm Circle: president, co-pres, plus revised bylaws, standing rules and committee, and created a much improved newsletter. She then created a UFC Scholarship Endowment, later developed the Holiday House Tours to help fund it
—Davis Art Center: president. Among many activities, she started the Family Concert Series and Kite Festival Preview Gala
—Davis Youth Softball: Candy Sales Fundraising Chair. Under her, the format was restructured, profits septupled to over $7,000 per year
—CommuniCare Silver Celebration Steering Committee
—Bob Dunning Guest Columnist rare to have a new person selected twice
—Community Graphics Service: Her computer skills have enabled her to design a variety of invitations, flyers, programs, brochures, newsletter, all she does generously for free
