I want to thank you for taking a moment to visit my web page.  I believe in an interactive government and encourage all citizens to take an active role in the growth and management of the City.  Below is my monthly message from the City Newsletter.
This is the time of year when the “doldrums” or “ho-hums” can set in.  The holiday season is past, bills come due, the days are still short, and winter can become tiresome.  Even the news that the groundhog saw his shadow this year can be tempered with the fact that, statistically, he is only right 39 percent of the time.  Just remember that life is good, there is much to be thankful for and spring is just around the corner. 

Our regular boys baseball, girls softball, tiger and tee ball registrations are underway.  Besides the reminder of the schedule in this newsletter, there are informational signs out around the city.  The Chubbuck/Pocatello Hockey Association has had a successful experience this winter with ice hockey and will soon be transitioning to their roller hockey programs.  I certainly recommend that you drop by when you see activity at the rink and take a look at what they offer.  We believe it is an activity that will only grow in the future. 

The 2010 Simplot Games has just concluded.  I hope you got involved in some way.  What a great opportunity it is for our community to host this event.  If you have never been, or haven’t been for a while, I encourage you to be there next year.  “THUNDER IN THE DOME” is this year’s version of the Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo which is coming to Holt Arena April 7th-10th.  There is no question that it has been and will continue to be spectacular and worthy of your support and attendance.  These two competitions do a great deal to put our area of the world on the map in a very positive way. 

We have a great economic development team working on our behalf in the community.  I believe that we will see more positive progress and accomplishments, as we move out of this economic downturn.  We are working and remaining engaged in every way we can as a city to participate in these efforts.  I believe this will make Chubbuck an even better place to live and do business.
