Guthrie Art Walk-Nov. 10

All too often I hear people say there is nothing to do in a small town. Lucky for us, this isn't true of Guthrie.

Our wonderful festivals are just one of the many reasons my wife and I love calling Guthrie home. This weekend our historic downtown plays host to the semi-annual Guthrie Art Walk. Every fall and spring this festival spotlights artists in the businesses and galleries downtown.

Visitors from all over the state will flock to our town this weekend to take part in the fun. If you live in Guthrie, you’re lucky enough to have this festival in your own backyard. Join us from 4-8 pm and make the most of all our town has to offer. 

Election Day-Nov. 6

I'm sure you realize tomorrow is an election day. The Presidential Election is certainly the highest profile election we hold in our country. While I do hope each of you will get out and exercise your civic duty, I hope you realize too, that there are many local elections that have significant impact on our lives. 

You can visit the Logan County Election Board to learn more about how to register, polling places, early voting and local election dates.

Meet and Greet Reception for New City Manager

I hope many of my constituents can join me on Tuesday, Nov. 6 as we welcome Guthrie’s new City Manager Sereniah Berland. There will be a public reception that day at 6:30 p.m., in the City Hall Lobby.

The role of City Manager is an important one. There is a team of hardworking city employees who make sure every aspect of Guthrie runs smoothly. The City Manager leads that team.

I know Sereniah is eager to meet the citizens and learn as much as possible about her new home. Please welcome her, and give her the support she needs to ensure Guthrie is a place where we can reside with pride.
