A little about Lance McGrath - Nampa City Council Candidate

Hi there!  My name is Lance McGrath and I am a candidate for Nampa City Council seat 2.  I am a native Idahoan and a long-time Nampan.  In fact, I have been a resident of Nampa for 20 years.  I am married to a wonderful woman, Marie.  We have three great kids - two boys and a little girl.  My wife, Marie, and I are both educators.  Marie is an administrator at Idaho Arts Charter School.  I am a librarian at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa.  I also serve as a commissioner on the Nampa Planning and Zoning Commission (I am the vice chair for 2011).  I have been involved in making Nampa a better place to live for many years.

I decided to run for Nampa City Council in order to make a difference in my community.  I have not seen much positive effect from the incumbent and his 16 years (yes, 16 years!!) in office.  So I threw my hat in the ring so the good people of Nampa would have a choice.  A good choice.  And that's me.  Lance.  My slogan is "Nampa Forward!" because if we aren't moving forward we are either going backward or we are stuck in a rut.  And we need to get moving...forward! 

If you want to know more about me take a look at my facebook page or the Vote for Lance McGrath web site.

I hope you will join me and help move Nampa Forward!

Best,
Lance
