For Gilpin School Board
My name is Cherokee Blake, and I’m a candidate for your Gilpin RE-1 School District School Board. I’ve lived in Gilpin County for 24 years and am married to John Blake. We have three daughters, two of whom graduated from Gilpin School. I am the proud grandparent of nine grandchildren, one graduated from Gilpin County School District this past year, and five are currently attending. I have had the pleasure of being employed at the Gilpin County Sheriff’s Office since 1997 as the Administrative Manager. I am also the Public Information Director for the Gilpin County Sheriff’s Office and multiple other county agencies. I thoroughly enjoy being a volunteer for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research and have greatly enjoyed my position as Women’s Ministry Coordinator for the past several years at my church.
Throughout my professional career, I have primarily held professional managerial positions which have provided me with experience, wisdom, knowledge, and discernment to bring forth as a member of the Gilpin RE-1 School District Board of Education.
