Thank you Benton, for your time and for your heart. I pray we always have access to you and you continue to desire ours! Merry Christmas to You and your beautiful wife and children.
Thank you for providing clear information. Could Council do something similar to the educational efforts by some police and fire departments that have a multi-week "citizen's academy" that bring interested people "behind the scenes" of their department? Or an outreach/internship with young people? Most of us have little idea of what you do as a council member and think you have to be an attorney or something. It might get more "ordinary" people interested in running.
Great minds think alike! We did actually start a citizens academy last year and just finished up our first graduation. It was a great class and I look forward to the application period this upcoming year!
Thank you Benton, for such good information that I wouldn't get otherwise. I'm really looking forward to see Kelley Long, Frank Farmer, Curt McGahhey sworn in January after a group of us worked tirelessly on their individual campaigns and had the opportunity to meet each of these amazing council to be members. God Bless you for taking the time and work to keep all of us in the loop about major issues facing council and their votes.
Thank you for your service and this very informative newsletter. One of the questions you asked was, What local businesses, events, or organizations would you like highlighted in future newsletters? I'd like to see you feature the work of the Greenville County Republican Party and in specific the tireless work of Yvonne Julian and Jeff Davis.
