Meet Kathy Barnes, Treasurer



My husband and I are parents of three South Eugene French Immersion Graduates, all currently attending Brigham Young University.  Our fourth child will be a Junior this year at South.  I love volunteering at the high school and find teen-age energy exciting and entertaining.

I was born and raised in Utah, and graduated from BYU in Finance.  After college, our little family lived in Washington, D.C. where my husband began his career and our middle two children were born.  We moved to Oregon in 1991 to be closer to our western roots and have loved living in a beautiful place where there is so much to do as a family.

I have been a stay-at-home mom for the past 25 years.  During that time, I taught piano lessons for 20 years, but now I fill my time volunteering at the schools, working in the women's organization for our church, singing with the Eugene Symphony Chorus, and spending every moment I can with our kids.  Lately I've been spending a lot of time knitting things for our new grandson.  What a great life!
