SPRINGFIELD - This year has been a whirlwind of activity, and it’s hard to believe it’s already back-to-school time. Since the spring legislative session ended in late May, I’ve been busy working on constituent requests and cases, visiting local organizations and businesses, and meeting with people on local projects and issues. The work in Springfield is just one aspect of being a State Representative. The local district office work continues year-round, and my dedicated staff is here in the office while I attend events and meetings. Throughout the spring and summer, my staff and I held traveling office hours across the district. I also held a tele-town hall in July to provide updates on the legislative session and to hear from constituents. We are continuously planning outreach events around the district. On September 3rd at 1:30 p.m., I am hosting a Senior Fraud Seminar at Meridian Village in Glen Carbon, where the Attorney General’s office will present on

ALTON - After a sinkhole at Gordon Moore Park closed the park for several weeks this summer, the park and Spencer T. Olin Community Golf Course are once again open . Vern Van Hoy, owner of the golf course, and general manager Mary Campbell spoke about their excitement about reopening and the struggles they went through while the golf course was closed. They noted that they did not know the park was going to reopen until two days before it did, and they had a successful first weekend back on the green. “We attended one meeting, and then after that, all the rest of the meetings were closed to everybody, so we did not know what was going on. We didn’t know if we were going to be opening up in eight weeks, ten weeks or ten years,” Van Hoy said. “The anxiety of not knowing, not having control, it’s the worst feeling in the world. So to find out that we were going to open as early as we did is exciting.” The golf course opened this weekend
