No more yard signs, knock-knocks, and forums to announce....just a huge THANK YOU!
I want to express my deep gratitude to you for putting us on top! I am excited to continue my work on the Council. With your engagement and thoughtfulness, I am confident we will continue to move Highland Park forward.
Please join me in congratulating Alyssa Knobel and Kim Stone as they begin to work with Mayor Rotering, my other fellow Councilmen and me to enhance the quality of life in our community. Congratulations as well to Carolyn Cerf, Bill Dytrych and Bob Crimo. They are dedicated residents who are focused on improving Highland Park, and I look forward to their continued participation.
So many contributed to my campaign -- too many to list here -- holding coffees, writing letters, installing yard signs, etc. Special shout out to my dream team: Tony Blumberg, Betsy Brint, Betsy Lassar, Linda Muskin, and Amy Zisook. Along with my wife Amy, they were the selfless core of the campaign. Two other quick thanks, to Laura Saret, who spent countless hours coordinating our volunteers, and Phil Goldman, who took those extraordinary pictures you "liked" which captured so much of our story. Truly, with Phil as the photographer, a picture is worth a thousand words.
Now we can turn from the campaign trail to the Green Bay Trail, just as spring is upon us! Hope to see you out there. If our paths don't cross when you are out and about, please feel free to contact me at dankaufmanhp@comcast.net. As always, I would love to hear what is on your mind.
All the best and many thanks again,
Dan Kaufman
Highland Park City Councilman
