NO. 102 - CHARLENE ASHENDORF
Ashendorf is on the board of Mesa Verde Community Inc. (that community’s homeowners association), which for a lot of people is work enough.
Not her.
She also is a member of the Costa Mesa Community Foundation; is executive director of the Community & School Collaboration; serves on the board of the Newport-Mesa Schools Foundation; and is on the Costa Mesa child care and youth committee.
Enough? Not quite.
She’s active at St. Joachim Catholic Church and is on the Coastline Community College gerontology program advisory board.
Ashendorf also has long been active with the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce’s Leadership Tomorrow program and this year won that group’s award for excellence in community leadership.
None of that would surprise those who know her. But how about this? She also is the state of California’s Senior Poet Laurete.
