UKIAH – Susan Stout of Lakeport is bringing her journalism background to a new position as the public relations/media coordinator for the Mendocino College Foundation.
Stout was recently hired by the foundation to implement specific projects identified by the group’s marketing committee.
She succeeds Susan Mesick, who recently assisted the foundation with newsletters, news releases and development of a branding identification.
Stout will work on public relations materials for the foundation in addition to helping the 25-year-old organization revamp its Web site.
As a 26-year resident of Lake County, Stout has spent seven years working as a reporter and editor for local newspapers and nearly 12 years as an employee of the county of Lake’s Marketing Program, where she applied her writing and editing skills to the creation of brochures, news releases and magazines promoting the attractions of Lake County. Her resume notes that she most recently worked for the county’s Health Services divisions.
“Having spent the last four years writing contracts and working on compliance issues for the Lake County Mental Health Department, I welcome the opportunity to focus on more creative types of writing and projects for the Mendocino College Foundation,” said Stout. “Since completing some basic news releases for the foundation, I am enjoying the return to journalistic work, and I look forward to additional challenges.”
The former Lake County Record-Bee assistant editor is researching Web sites of similar organizations and helping the foundation’s marketing committee identify elements for revising the existing Web site, according to Wilda Shock, of Lakeport, marketing committee chair and past foundation president.
Foundation Board President Tom Herman noted that Stout will produce newsletters and news releases about the foundation’s annual events, scholarship awards, and other programs that will be distributed to local and regional media, and will appear on the Web site.
Stout also will assist the committee to develop promotional materials and displays to represent the foundation at various community events and Mendocino College functions.
Additional members of the Foundation’s Marketing Committee are Harry Bistrin of Ukiah, Tom Herman of Willits, Tod Kong of Hopland, John Bogner of Ukiah, Peggy Campbell-DeBolt of Lakeport and Christy Scollins of Redwood Valley.
The Mendocino College Foundation provides student scholarships, funds improvements to educational programs and staff development at the college district’s campuses in Mendocino and Lake counties, and works to cultivate support for the college.

The day falls between the Yule of winter and the solstice of spring, and marks new beginnings.
Brigid is know for the blessings of the waters of healing so it seems appropriate to mark this day with the blessing of the waters of Clear Lake.
In memory of Corbin Harney, Western Shoshone elder and medicine man, a fire ceremony for healing will be held. Harney visited Lake County several times to bless the lake and remind us of his message: one earth, one water, one air. He passed in 2007 with strong love for our lake and healing springs.
All who hold intention for healing creation are asked to join in person or in spirit. Gathering will be canceled if it rains.
Lucerne Harbor Park is located at 6225 East Highway 20.
