Appreciate county road crew

Published 2:06 am Friday, September 7, 2012

Dear Gary,

We want extend a huge Thank You to The Okanogan Department of Public Works. To Ken Stanley for working his magic on the scheduling of the road work, to Mike Rairdan for referring me to Ken Stanley and to all the crew who swept and made the roads clear and safe for the cars.

The county was in the process of resurfacing the roads to Chesaw and postponed it until after the Chesaw Hot August Nights Car Show.  The show was a great success and we truly appreciate the extra effort it took for them to re-work their schedule around our show date.
