Everyone knows how proud I am of our community. Everywhere I go I tout what we have been able to accomplish and the plans we have on the books to allow our community to thrive and not just survive.
We try to highlight all our joint ventures that we do for the betterment of all. We attempt to let people know how much our schools offer our community. The outstanding achievement academically, in the sports arena and dominance in the Robotics field.
Our Senior Center is second to none in our county (facilities, programming and services offered).
We help supply eleven percent of the fire coverage for our county with dedicated professional on call firefighters.
Our Police departments work hand in hand not only in responding to calls but public education and crime prevention also.
Well, I get the honor of tooting our own horn again.
