Sedgwick County Fair in Cheney
Wednesday thru Saturday, July 8-11
CHENEY: Hundreds of fairgoers met Mary Ann Harmon & her crew at the Sedgwick County Fair. We had a booth in Building 3, where you could come and meet Mary Ann, discuss her ideas, and tell her YOUR concerns and wishes. She's enjoyed visiting with you!
Above, Mary Ann, in the Fair Parade, Wednesday eve, grabs another handful of candy to throw to the kids, as her crew, in white "HARMON" T-shirts, pass out candy and flyers, and chat with the crowd.
At right, in her Building 3 booth, a future constituent points out his home on her district map, as another registers for a door prize. Slide show in the background outlines our District's challenges, and her targets for change.
Carnival rides and games, every kind of fair food, live music, rodeo, eclectic shopping (get yer' cowboy hats, exotic jewelry, big tools & odd toys here!), sports & farm competitions, petting zoo, demolition derby, and more! Such fun!

Harmon at Independence Day events
July 4:
GARDEN PLAIN: Mary Ann attended the Independence Day events in Goddard and her hometown, Garden Plain. She rode in the Garden Plain parade with supporters, who greeted onlookers, handed out literature, and tossed out candy. The afternoon events throughout the city, including games, rides, and other attraction, finished with fireworks.
Just for fun, Mary Ann entered the apple pie baking contest (another cook beat her, but hers was still delicious!), It was a lively event.
GODDARD:
That evening, Mary Ann joined the festivities at Goddard, greeting and chatting with hundreds of attendees throughout the festival grounds, between concert performances and fireworks. Many of the attendees were excited to hear her knowledge of the tax and data centers issues, and her ideas for bringing both under control. And there was free ice cream!
What better way to celebrate America's 250th Anniversary, than to engage in politicking in the land that makes it free and open to all!

Mary Ann Tells Legislators to Roll Back Property Taxes, Limit Data Centers
May 14th, the local State Senators & Representatives held their annual public meeting to hear citizens' concerns. Our current district State Rep did not show up. Mary Ann did, and scolded the legislators for shifting property taxes away from big corporations, onto homeowners and consumers. We used to pay only 38% of property taxes, but since our current "representative" has been in office, that's grown to 57%.
She also spoke out against big data centers,
that will devastate our our district's farmlands,
consume and pollute our water, drive up our
energy costs, and generate noise - yet provide
only a temporary small surge of employment,
to be followed swiftly by their permanent destruction of many good jobs in our district, state and nation.
Dozens of Citizens from both parties applauded & joined her message, making a clear impression on the gathered lawmakers.
