Bob King Understands Mt. Airy's Challenges

The following was submitted by Risa Misra of Mt.Airy

On May 7th I’ll be voting for Bob King for Mt. Airy Town Council. 

Bob moved to Mt. Airy in 1992 because it was a nice place to raise children.  For the past 20 years he has worked to enrich the lives of an entire generation of children through his efforts with the Mt. Airy Youth Athletic Association (1994-2001), the Mt. Airy Parks and Recreation Commission (1997-present), and Calvary United Methodist Church(2007-present).

In 20 years, Bob has seen Mt. Airy’s landscape change. Through it all he has consistently worked well with volunteers, Town and County staff, and elected officials to further our best interests by acquiring parkland and generating ball fields, bike and foot trails, and recreational programs for citizens of all ages. 

Bob understands the challenges of maintaining a vibrant community, one that remains affordable and provides a high quality of life for the majority of existing residents, and also supports local businesses. He understands that good schools, good roads, a safe and reliable water supply, and local recreational and employment opportunities are necessary for this generation and future generations to thrive.  

Bob’s long record of service shows that he is willing and able to reach across the table to make good things happen. I believe that is exactly what Mt. Airy needs.
