Board of County Commissioners
Meeting April 21, 2015
Minutes
Dan Despotopulos, Manager of the Deschutes County Fair&Expo Center along with County
Commissioners Tammy Baney,Alan Unger,Tony DeBone and County Administrator Tom Anderson met
at 2:30pm to discuss the operation at the Fair&Expo Center.
The meeting took place in the Board room where Dan discussed the overall business and that he
planned on taking everyone on a tour of the facility to see things first hand.We started at the Bank of
the Cascades Center where the operations crew was removing dirt from an event.The BOCC and Tom
met with the operations crew removing the dirt(Maarten Leunen,Andrew Inglinara, Henry Washburn
and Randy Bennett).They were very impressed and took the time to thank the crew for all their hard
work and did not realize the effort that goes into bringing the dirt in/out for all the events.We then
toured the maintenance facility to show them how we are self-contained and do all of our own work
and do not get any outside help.
We then then went out to the outer property lines where the off-road race track is,and indicated we
were working with a group to possibly construct a drag strip.
The next stop was the ry park where we met with ry park manager Kathy Glidewell who gave the tour of
the park and main building explain how everything works.
The last stop on the tour was the kitchen facility where we met with Butch Graham, Food/beverage
manager. Butch explained how the kitchen operates,how we control inventories, how staffing is
satisfied and the overall program.
The tour/meeting ended at 4:15pm.
Respectfully Omitted
