It was wonderful to see so many families and children come together. Events like these remind us how important it is to create spaces where neighbors can connect, celebrate, and support one another.
The 29th Senate District is filled with many unique and wonderful neighborhoods, and we feel it’s important to have our constituent services team in the community, reaching our constituents closer to where they live.
