Around Town
Wildomar Walk Overview
I have completed my campaign #wildomarwalk! Since August I have been walking all the neighborhoods of District 4 listening and talking about the issues you have and what you love about Wildomar. 47.5 miles of pure enjoyment getting to know this beautiful city and the most amazing people. I have built my campaign on what you told me you wanted addressed. (Road fixtures, slower growth, horse trail maintenance and materials, more police patrol, more effective comms, an advocate that will actually listen and take your input, address the low income housing and homeless shelter going in and more focus on our historical culture). I hope I get the chance to be your advocate and get the issues our district needs addressed. Thank you everyone that talked to me and provided your input as well as the dozens of you that walked with me! It’s been a journey I will never forget! Don’t forget to vote Karen Ellison!!!

Passion Project
One thing to know about me is that I love dogs! I have my little Charlie who will be turning 17 soon. He's been a therapy dog for children and senior citizens but is now retired. As part of my love for dogs - I would love to work with the AFV to build a communication network to help reunite lost dogs with their owners and as well as find forever homes for dogs that reside there. We all see the numerous messages on Ring, Nextdoor and Facebook asking for help in finding their lost dogs. I would like to help create a network with AFV to better facilitate communication as well as education and fundraising.
