During National Safe Boating Week from May 16-22, I’m reminding boaters to wear a life jacket, never boat while intoxicated, have a float plan to let someone know where and when they'll be boating, check the weather forecast before and during each boating trip.

It was an honor to sit down and answer questions from our local high school students on The Patriot Podcast. As a former school director it’s wonderful to hear what’s on the minds of our students. Watch and listen as I address the accomplishments we’ve made in education.

On International Firefighters Day, and every day, I am proud to support our first responders. Our local firefighters do so much for our community every day, and I will always fight for the men and women who are there when we need them the most!

Members of the Civil Air Patrol are consistently out in public, actively contributing to nonprofits, and are strong members of their communities. I express my gratitude for all their efforts.

Read Across America Week is all about encouraging a love of reading in our students, and celebrating the role literature plays in helping kids learn and grow. I was so glad to share a live reading of “Maybe” by Kobi Yamada with Old Forge’s sixth graders for Guest Reader Day.
