Thank You

Thanks to the citizens of Carbondale who supported me in my successful return to the Carbondale City Council.  Representing the citizens of Carbondale is of utmost importance to me and  I look forward to working with the community to move Carbondale forward and improve the quality of life here in our town.

ZIP ZIP ZIP

Coming in April, the opening of a fantastic new outdoor adventure in a Zip Line through the rolling hills of forests here in southern Illinois. Springtime will bring the debut of Shawnee Bluffs Canopy Tours. Check out their website of: www.shawneezip.com.
This additional outdoor activity will reinforce that southern Illinois is the mecca for outdoor adventures in the Midwest.

Boondock's Seafood Co.

A new locally owned Carbondale eatery specializing in seafoods and steaks has opened in the old Houlihans building next to the Holiday Inn Conference Center.  Crowds have been packing the place, especially on weekend nights.  Yet another expansion of cuisine choices for southern Illinois diners and a great atmosphere too. 

Bandana's BBQ

Bandana's BBQ is open for business and has seen a steady stream of diners through its doors. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Carbondale's dining selection and food menu has now been expanded with delicious southern BBQ and side dishes. Enjoy the food!
