Pat later became the civilian director in charge of 1,500 personnel and an annual budget of over $100 million at the Sacramento Air Logistics Center on McClellan Air Force Base. He capped his stellar career by directing McClellan\u2019s successful closure and conversion to civilian use.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy military training shaped my core values: placing public service above self, treating people with respect and honesty, and achieving success as a team,\u201d said Dwyer. \u00a0\u201cA strong dose of those values at EID would benefit us all,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Pat\u2019s education includes bachelor and master\u2019s degrees in Business and a master\u2019s in Accounting. He taught college students in Operations Management for sixteen years, being named \u201cOutstanding Adjunct Faculty Member\u201d at Golden Gate University in 2003.<\/p>\n<p>Pat Dwyer and his family have lived in El Dorado County since 2005. During that time, he has given back to the community in many ways. He has served eight years on Mother Lode Rehabilitation Enterprises Board of Directors, five years on the board of Diamond Springs-El Dorado Fire Protection District, and<br \/>\ntwelve years on the boards of County Fire Safe Councils. Dwyer has been instrumental in obtaining $2 million in funding for County Fire Safe Councils that help make our county safer from catastrophic fire.<\/p>\n<p>Dwyer is running an energetic campaign. \u201cI\u2019m out in the community as much as possible, meeting voters and learning their views. I\u2019ll be holding neighborhood get-togethers and knocking on every door I can,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m also studying reams of information about EID, attending board meetings, and touring EID facilities so that I can hit the ground running.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEID\u2019s ratepayers want reliable, affordable services without a lot of drama,\u201d said Dwyer. \u201cMy message to the voters is, \u2018Put me on the job. \u00a0With my record of steady, ethical and collaborative leadership, I know I can deliver for you.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Team Dwyer invites you to add your name to the growing list of those who endorse Pat and support his election.
