What better way to celebrate our 120 years than to connect with our residents and provide job opportunities at the same time? Please join us. It’s a win-win combination: cake and career.”

“Come out, you can get a piece of cake and enjoy celebrating 120 years of Sandoval County,” County Commission Chair Dave Heil said. “There’s also a career fair that day. (Sandoval County Director of Marketing & Communications) Shawn Perry-Turner has done a lot of good work on putting this all together. We’re looking to make this a fun celebration recognizing Sandoval County being in existence since since 1903, and no I wasn’t there.”
