Title
Nodaway Farm, caring for horses
Description
Bob and Denison are both graduate Foresters from Oregon State University, with M.S. degrees in Civil Engineering and Forest Resources from the University of Washington, respectively.
Bob moved to Alaska to climb Mt. McKinley (Denali). Denison moved to Alaska to conduct fire ecology research in Denali National Park. As careers took them to Anchorage, they met, fell in love, and married. The declining health of their parents brought Bob and Denison back to the Pacific Northwest, to Wilsonville, Oregon in 1988. Bob became the Director for Environmental Services for METRO in Portland, and Denison was Regional Interpretive Partnerships Leader for the U.S. Forest Service in Portland, District Management Team Forester in Carson, Washington, and Director of the U.S. Forest Service Regional Columbia Ecosystem Center in Vancouver, Washington.
Bob accepted his current position as Director of Community Development for Clallam County in 1996. The Deputy Regional Forester selected Denison as the next District Ranger for Quilcene on the Olympic National Forest. Pending placement into her new assignment, Denison turned to her life-long horse passion and began Nodaway Farm's retirement and lay-up horse care program. Our other passion - Nodaway Farm is also working towards achieving NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association) certification as a riding center for people with disabilities.
