We have various small shopping centers, and a public library. We do not have a hospital. However, medical needs are accessed by traveling up to 20 miles away to neighboring counties, or by going to the local Urgent Care facility.

Use these questions to think more about how you would describe your community...
  - What should politicians and/or map drawers know about your community?
  - What are the needs of your community?
  - Is there anything else you want to tell us about your community?

Examples of needs or concerns: Keep community in the same district or separate into multiple districts, shared policy concerns, need for a social service, relationship to other nearby communities, issues with current district lines

Your response: The community has many needs. And presently the districts are unfairly drawn, and some cover vast areas that do not reflect a concern for people in the rural community. There is no fair representation! I would like to see the lines redrawn to fairly give everyone the opportunity to vote for, and elect leaders who represent their core values that will in turn lead to a positive future for everyone concerned.
