Mayor and Council
Mayor Earls has been a proud resident of La Pine since 1999, where she and her husband have raised three sons and built a life rooted in community values. As small business owners, they have long been dedicated to fostering a strong, happy, and healthy environment for all who call La Pine home.
I have lived in Oregon for almost 50 years and La Pine since 2017. My husband and I chose to retire in La Pine to take advantage of its outdoor beauty and small town feel. At this point in my life I want to give something back to the community. I enjoy Greek and Roman history, landscape design, interior design and gardening.
I graduated from Portland State University with a degree in History and Religious Studies with honors.
Councilor Karen Mose has lived in La Pine for over 30 years and served as a wildland firefighter and water tender provider for fire suppression on forest lands for the majority of her career. She joined the Council in 2023.
She has two children and several grandchildren in the La Pine area and she enjoys spending time with family, hunting, and camping in her spare time.
