Tom Gullen Endorsement

I am writing to support the candidacy of Elise Gibson-Duda, Scott Corley, and Freddy Johnson for the open positions of the Winnetka Park District Board of Commissioners.

Kudos to the Winnetka Park District Board and Staff for having the vision to make significant renovations and improvements to the lakefront and golf facilities. Bringing these facilities up to date will benefit residents and make Winnetka an even better pla

However, the work is not completed. Other facilities and parks in the community are aging and in need of major expansion and renovations. This will require creative thinking and financing ideas utilizing both public and private contributions. 

I believe Elise, Scott, and Freddy will bring the vision and skills to make these projects happen.

I am writing to support the candidacies of Elise Gibson (Duda), Scott Corley, and Frederick (Freddy) Johnson for the open positions on the Winnetka Park District Board of Commissioners.

In the years to come, it is crucial to continue prioritizing the renewal of our parks, lakefront, and youth programs. Expanding and modernizing youth programs is essential to providing more opportunities for our children to grow, develop, and stay active. These programs play a vital role in fostering a sense of community, teamwork, and leadership among our youth.

I am confident that Elise, Scott, and Freddy have the vision, forward thinking approach, and expertise to lead these efforts. They have already started their work by engaging with youth programs to better understand the needs of our community. 

Their leadership will take us to the next level, ensuring Winnetka remains a vibrant community with top-tier recreational spaces and programs for all ages.
