What an incredible time we had with you today, Olathe! It was a great day for a parade and bringing folks together- friends old and new.

I’d like to give a special shoutout to my husband, who made sure that the campaign was still represented despite my recent health setbacks. It was all hands on deck today and I have endless gratitude to every person who helped bring this together! It really does take all of us.

Thank you to Johnson County Old Settlers for a wonderful weekend!
