We have an opportunity to elect individuals to our town council who have all proven their dedication to the town of Bethany Beach.

Tony McClenny and Jerry Dorfman have devoted untold hours serving on the Town Council and many of the town's committees.  They both have attended many meetings of state and local officials over the years, and they have never lost sight of what makes Bethany so special to us all.

Lew Killmer has the knowledge and experience to join council and not miss a beat, having served on council in the past.  His tenacity as chairman of the town's planning commission has resulted in a revised and updated town code that is clear, concise and understandable.  We need Lew on the council.

Jack Gordon has an impressive background that will be an asset to Council.  Jack has also dedicated many hours to serving on various town committees.  His role on the Budget and Finance Committee has helped position the town to weather possible tough times going forward.

None of us want to lose "our" Bethany, however, we need individuals who can help guide the Town of Bethany Beach into the future, not people who only want to reminisce about the past.  More than ever we need experience, proven leadership and individuals who will focus on the Bethany of tomorrow.  Please vote for Tony McClenny, Jerry Dorfman, Lew Killmer and Jack Gordon on Sept. 6.
