Op/Ed: Why You Should Vote For Me on Tuesday

My name is Kenny Curtzwiler and I have lived, worked and enjoyed South Lake Tahoe as a resident since 1977 when I came here for a vacation and stayed on as so many have. Many of you know me as The Skibum. Many of you know me as the Bartender at Carlos Murphy’s for 19 years and many of you know me as a Contractor and owner of K & K Services, a Tree Service and Roofing company. Regardless of how you know me the point is you know me, you know my thoughts and position on everything that concerns our community. There is no hidden agenda with me.

Pam and I were married at Emerald Bay. We have raised three children all of whom were born at Barton. I have mountain biked every trail and have swam in every lake in the Sierra. I ski every day. I have worked two jobs just to survive. I am a 20 year military veteran. Our family’s roots are here and I am grateful to be able to live and play here.

I am very active in our community both personally and professionally through my company where we provide labor, monetary donations and services to all local community fundraisers and events. We clean the beaches every July 5th and have done so for the last 16 years. The Children’s Memorial Tree is and will always be a factor with our family as my son’s plaque is there.

It is about time I stepped out from behind my SKIBUM license plate and I am asking for your vote of confidence, trust and accountability in seeking the position of Supervisor District V in El Dorado County.

Think globally and act locally.
