Fargo says goodbye | Letter

Published 2:24 pm Tuesday, April 22, 2014

It’s unbelievable that I’ve been Honorary Mayor of Eastsound for almost a year.  I think back on my campaign and what fun it was to meet so many of my neighbors on Orcas – your support was amazing.  My parents, Adam Bartram and Kristin Mierau, my campaign manager Mariah Buck and my sponsor, Windermere, I couldn’t have done this without their support and guidance.

The official 2014 campaign is just around the corner and I encourage you to throw your “bone” into the race.  If you’re friendly with children, adults and other pets, enjoy being the center of attention, you need run for Mayor, you won’t regret it!  You’ll also need a campaign manager and a sponsor,  they to work really hard on your behalf!

This is a fundraiser for Children’s House and every dollar raised benefits the school’s toddler and preschool program.  Children’s House is seeking five local pets – you could be one of them.  The campaign officially begins May 24, so if you are interested, the deadline for accepting candidates is May 8. Get your name in early, it will give you more time to prepare for your campaign. For more information, visit www.oich.org or call Children’s House at 376-4744 – tell them Fargo sent you!

Hoping all of your kongs are full of peanut butter!

Fargo

Honorary Mayor
