MEET THE TROTR BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Shannon Johnson Personeni - Board Vice President
Shannon is the founding member of TROTR and has been here from its inception. She is always smiling and encouraging and is the backbone to our organization. Shannon is a Woodland native and has been involved with horses since the age of 5. She rode on the UCD Eventing team during her senior year in high school and then on the University of Oregon Hunter/Jumper team throughout college. She continues to ride English and pursue personal goals in 3-day eventing. Shannon can be seen around the ranch teaching lessons, driving the tractor and is always available if the need arises.
Professionally, Shannon has her MBA and is the full-time director of the WISE Foundation, a non-profit, international educational program.

Kathleen Walton - Volunteer Coordinator/Secretary
Kathleen’s son Daniel is responsible for her involvement at TROTR. Kathleen began riding horses at age 6, learning English-hunter/jumper, and rode consistently until she was 20. Daniel, having been a TROTR volunteer, knew his horse-loving mom would love to be around horses again. He urged his mom to volunteer at TROTR in 2011. We are a pretty smart bunch at TROTR and quickly knew a good thing when we saw it! She became volunteer coordinator and joined the Board of Directors in October 2012. Kathleen can be found mucking stalls every Saturday (rain or shine), while overseeing our volunteers.
After moving to Woodland in 1995, Kathleen served on the boards of FEMALE (Formerly Employed Mothers At the Leading Edge) and the Woodland Toy Library. She was also a member of the American Association of University Women and co-chair of the Food Tent for the Ferns Park Rebuild in 2007. Being an expert volunteer on many school projects and pageants with her children, she is the perfect fit to be our volunteer coordinator!
