McEuen Park is an awesome project and the changes are amazing! The workmen have been friendly and wave when they see anyone with their noses pressed against the fence. It has been a long time coming and I am very excited to be able to walk though the park some day soon.

I am grateful that so many good jobs are being filled because of this park project. I have spoken at City Council meetings a number of times thanking them for approving the park project that employs so many here in Coeur d’Alene and the surrounding area.

The project has unfortunately caused a rift in the community. I am apolitical, but see the importance of being involved as a result of McEuen Park. In November, I ask you to support those candidates who view the project you are working on as a positive step for Coeur d’Alene. The candidates I have spoken with who want to see Coeur d’Alene continue to grow in positive ways are Steve Widmyer, Amy Evans, Kiki Miller and Woody McEvers.
