Q & A with Park Ranger Jared Clough

Washington County strives to be an employer of choice. What made you choose to work for Washington County?

I had been a Washington County employee for close to 5 years working for Facilities & Parks Division so it was a natural choice to move into the full-time Ranger position. In my time with Washington County I've built strong connections with the public, knowing many of our regular patrons by name. The Parks team makes coming to work each day a really great experience too!

How did you feel the first time you put on the ranger uniform?

Wearing the Washington County Ranger uniform for the first time was an incredible feeling. As a long-time resident of the area with a rich history of Veterans and Public Servants in my family, I take great pride in the ability to serve my community in an enhanced capacity as a Ranger.

What do you enjoy doing on your days off?

I enjoy spending time with my partner, woodworking, gardening, traveling, and working on the family farm.
