Everybody into the pool!

Nothing says summer quite like a trip to the community pool.  Today, I had the pleasure of accepting a $2,000 check from the Foothills Optimist Club, TriSports.com, and TriSports Racing to support pool passes for 200 local youth.

This is the seventh year that the Foothills Optimist Club has supported this program, and the Town is very grateful to the Optimists, Trisports.com and TriSports Racing for being such great community partners.

Another great way to enjoy the Marana Pool this summer is by attending a Dive-In Movie. The Muppets are being shown June 16 at 7:30 p.m., so come relax in the water and enjoy the show.

Town Council enters blogosphere

For the past couple of months, Mayor Honea has been reaching out to the community through his popular blog. The mayor has touched on many subjects and received lots of positive feedback while making the rounds in Marana.

It sounded like so much fun that all seven of us are getting in on this branch of social media. Welcome to the Marana Town Council blog, one of the many ways we are reaching out to the people we have the honor of representing.

All of us have different interests and enjoy spending time in the community getting to know the people we have the honor of representing. We encourage all of you to bookmark this URL and visit it often to see what’s happening around town.

Thanks for all you do to make Marana a great place to live and do business. We are looking forward to sharing our many experiences and remaining accessible to you, the people we serve.

Mayor Ed Honea, Vice Mayor Patti Comerford, Council Members Dave Bowen, Herb Kai, Carol McGorray, Jon Post and Roxanne Ziegler
