2016 Marigold Days:
The 51st Annual Marigold Days
celebration was this last weekend and once again it was a huge success. I would
like to thank everyone that worked on any of the events this past weekend. The
Marigold Days Committee, the MRA, the Field of Flags committee, The Mantorville
Fire Department, The VFW, The Congregational Church, The Car Show organizers,
the live performers, the Fireworks, all of our many vendors and supporters and
everyone else that made this weekend possible. With out your efforts this event
would not happen so THANK YOU! I have uploaded a few snap shots I took during
the weekend. The photos can be seen on my blog at MayorBradford.BlogSpot.com
Stage Coach Days:
The EDA is organizing a new
subcommittee much like the one we have that organizes Marigold Days celebration.
The kick off of the new committee will be held at the Hubble House on September
18th at 4:00 pm. There will be some hors d’oeuvres and beverages
provided by the EDA. We are planning on having a person that has had a great
deal of success in organizing and motivating volunteers to speak to the group
about some possible approaches to make this group successful. This article is
an open invitation to anyone that would be interested in helping with next
years Stage Coach Days to come see what this might involve and get more
information with helping out with a city function. I am really looking forward
to seeing many new faces.
Still looking for one more EDA Commissioner:
If your interest are more aligned
with promoting tourism and our business climate here in Mantorville the EDA
does still have one position open. The City Council on Monday approved the
appointment of one new commissioner that was forwarded from the EDA to the City
Council and with the next appointment the Economic Development Authority will
be at full strength. Please consider applying for this rewarding opportunity.
Thank you again for participating in
this years Marigold Days weather you just came down to look or if your were
involved with helping out.
Yours in service,
Chuck Bradford,
Mayor - City of Mantorville
