Representatives
TECUMSEH SHACKELFORD moved from Los Angeles and established residency in the Pasadena area December 1984 after marrying the former Annette Dean. Subsequently to the birth of their youngest child Tecumseh, the family moved around the corner into Altadena where they currently reside. He retired from the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power July 1, 1998 after over thirty-one years of dedicated service. In 1999 after observing undesirable illegal activities occurring daily and nightly at the Rose Bowl Motel Shackelford co-founded the Windsor Arroyo Neighborhood Association (WANA) and was successful in closing this establishment in April 2002. Also in April 2002 he responded to the call from Eddie Newman, Principal John Muir High School at the time, to help support struggling male students by organizing the School’s Male Mentors Program. The program provided tutoring, assisting students in establishing objectives and taught them how to effectively prepare a game plan for life by introducing them to positive male figures. Shortly after meeting with the school’s Principal Shackelford teamed with Gene Campbell and former Pasadena NAACP head Del Yarbrough who used their own money to fund Muir’s Mentoring and Partnership for Youth Development (MPYD). This program has continued to grow and has become an integral part of the school while boasting a very high percentage of their young men not only graduating from high school, but many went on to graduate from college and are now in successful careers. As the senior Town Councilman for area 4610 Shackelford willingly assists in efforts to improve the community in many areas. He does whatever it takes to keep his constituents fully informed about upcoming issues affecting the community. He is always available to his community members if they need to reach him. Those who know him well know to contact him on cell phone if you really require his immediate attention. Warriors such as this are very rare. A community servant is the only title that fits this seasoned veteran. The community and neighborhood are very fortunate to have him as their representative. Term Expires 2013
