We Win! We Win!
What an amazing journey this past 3 months has been. We walked our neighborhoods, knocked on doors, and we asked in simple terms for our neighbors to trust me with Pensacola's future. I have been given a gift by the people of District 3 and I am ready to get to work on making Pensacola the thriving and vibrant place we all know it can be.
Only in stepping out and standing up for what you believe in can true change really happen. This race was what appeared to be the impossible task, yet with hard work, and a true plan for change, we spoke to the tough issues that face our city and our neighbors heard us loud and clear.
Thanks to everyone on our team for all of your hard work and support. Thanks for walking with me and getting the word out. Thanks for supporting our family over the past 3 months. Thanks for being our true friends. Thanks for believing in our dream. Thanks for being a part of making Pensacola a great place to live. Here's to the best we can be!!! It is time for me to get to Work now. I am in awe of the job I have been given, what an honor!!!
We did it together,we all WIN.
Thanks, Maren

Be boldly unafraid Maren.
Glad to see you starting an online presence!
Hi Maren,
As a new council member perhaps you can address an issue I have concern over.
Call me old school - but doesn't Christmas start AFTER Thanksgiving? The answer is obviously yes. So then, why does the City of Pensacola have to join Target and Wal-Mart in destroying Thanksgiving by starting the Christmas season so soon?
Just today as I was driving into my downtown office I see all sorts of Christmas decorations lining the street. What?! I know that retailers can't wait for Black Friday to get here but do we as a city really want to teach our youngsters that we skip Thanksgiving and just have a Turkey as a formality on the 4th Thursday of November? I think not.
So - you have a mandate for change and I hope that you will consider using for next years holiday festivities.
