Meet the Deputy Mayor Katy Washington

In School recently Emily's class has been building a community for Social Studies. She's married has 2 kids is a veterinarian and her name is Katy Washington. At the end of this project the kids were given the opportunity to run for Mayor of Evergreen Falls(not sure this is right I keep getting it wrong???). After collection 50 signatures on a petition to be eligible to run they had a Mayoral election. She created a platform vowing to expand the park, bring more food stores to town and plant a tree for every citizen which she presented in a speech. After the first round there was a 3-way tie so there had to be a run-off. Emily and 2 of the boys from her class. She ultimately tied for second and shares the Deputy Mayor position with Trent. It was a whirlwind week while all this was going on. You can see some of her things she created for the election. Her Poster was cool! I found this holographic sticker paper in Silver and also blue at Hobby Lobby and we ran it through the Big Shot with the Star die cut.

More of the sticker paper and some Nestabilities helped make these campaign buttons totally cool. Then we printed out Vote for Katy Washington on return address labels and wrapped them around Hershey Nuggets and those got handed out as well.

All in all her campaign was a complete success. She did really well coming in, in the top 3 and becoming Deputy Mayor! Next week we get to go to Mission control and she has a role in simulating a shuttle mission!

Have a wonderful day and try try to stay dry!
