Mark joined the Marine Corps in 1988 and served for 8 years. He found a second calling while serving, and started college to study Fire Science. His passion for helping people grew into the career he has now enjoyed for over 29 years. Mark is currently a Firefighter for the City of Scottsdale Fire Department and he admits, “there is no greater feeling than being able to help someone on their “worst day”. During his career, Mark was fortunate enough to work with now retired Heber-Overgaard Fire Chief William D. McCluskey and grew a lifelong friendship.

Mark is an Arizona native born in Phoenix in 1969. He is the oldest son of three to Larry and Lorie Dahl. Every July, Mark’s family vacationed at “Big Lake” in the White Mountains. They enjoyed camping and fishing at this favorite location. This is where his love for the Rim Country started.

Fast forward to today; on their family’s way home from “Big Lake” they were blessed to have found a property for sale here in Overgaard and put in an offer. In 2019, Mark and his family purchased the property. His family includes his wife April, and three of their combined five children, two horses and the Mayor of Tall Timbers Park- the family dog, “Charlie”. 

Mark has met a lot of great people in the short time living in Heber-Overgaard. One day, he was approached by Chief McCluskey about an idea that was about to become a reality in 2021. This was the Heber-Overgaard Community Resource Network or “HOCRN” for short. Spending his entire life helping people, it felt “right” and was a good fit for him to run for the board and serve his community.

On February 2nd, 2022, at 2:22 pm that dream of a couple amazing people became a reality for the five of them, which has grown to seven in just a short time. Amazing things can happen when a community comes together for a common goal to help one another.
