Oakville Mayor Visits Post's Corners

Curtis's class was studying governments in school and he thought it would be cool to check out our Town Hall.  He got real brave and sent a note to the Mayor asking if he could possibly get a moment of his time to meet with him to find out a bit about his job.  Much to Curtis' surprise, the Mayor's office responded back offering to meet the entire class and even made life real easy by coming direct to the school.

The Mayor was so impressed with Curtis' initiative he even offered him a job...Curtis was quick to accept - anything to get out of school :)

The Mayor spoke about some of the different things the municipal government does, some of the big projects they are working on now like the new hospital, and even offered to leave his official mayoral chain of office behind so the kids could get their pictures taken with it.  What a great day and super learning experience for the kids.  Thanks very much Mayor Burton!!
