Comments from the Chair

I am excited to have the opportunity to serve as the new Chairperson of our Manistee County Democratic Party. I appreciate the strong foundation that the outgoing leaders have left for this new administration to build upon. Their tireless work and commitment have resulted an excellent grass-roots organization that is well focused on serving the greater good and improving the quality of life for all residents of Manistee County.
Many of you may not know me personally even though I have been living in Manistee County for over 22 years. I recently retired from Nalco Water an Ecolab Company after a 40-year career leading field technical sales teams. During my first ten years in Manistee, I was responsible for our operations in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. Then, during my final 12 years, I was responsible for my company’s business relationship with major clients, first in North America and then globally. I had a very fulfilling career focused on water-related challenges and environmental sustainability. In these roles I typically left opportunity to get to know each other. In retirement, that will change!
I look forward to hearing from you anytime you have a question or idea to improve our county party. We just completed a daunting election cycle with outstanding participation from many of you inspite of the pandemic situation. We are now challenged to maintain and build on this momentum through 2021 in preparation for our next election cycle in 2022. I hope you will join me in turning Manistee County BLUE IN ’22! We will be focusing on working together to overcome some of the misinformation and misconceptions our neighbors may have about our Democratic Party. We will also be active recruiting and supporting candidates for local elected offices. We will do this by being proactive and visible in every part of Manistee County focusing on the real issues that we face right here every day. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
