Rhonda Griffin is doing a series of interviews with candidates for the November elections.  There are very few ground rules, but bashing the opponent is one of them.  Tell me what you propose to do to make this county better.

 

Rhonda has been covering the Firefighter Camp.  The 17 junior firefighters have worked hard.  I hope you have enjoyed her articles and the pics.
