I have been waiting to post about my meeting with the mayor until I received more of the pictures from the meeting. I officially have copies now thanks to Amanda Crane of the Bossier Press. I can finally update you all about the visit.
I had the opportunity to meet Mayor Lorenz Walker of Bossier City prior to engaging in the Miss Louisiana State Meeting. Myself, Megan Miller, Ginger Douglas, and Scarlett Britt all gathered in his office. He shared lots of information about the city of Bossier, the cyber innovation center, goals for he upcoming year, projects in progress at this time, and about his duties as mayor. We each gave a brief description of ourselves, our goals and ambitions, our titles, and where we attend school. Overall it was a wonderful time to gather and learn about the city as well as further network with the mayor. He was so kind to give us each a "coin" that represents himself and Bossier City.
I had such an wonderful time! He had such a great personality and was very approachable. I look forward to possibly working with him more in the near future and I have an entirely new appreciation for Bossier City, Louisiana!
Yours truly,
Miss Louisiana Jazzland
