The summer has arrived with a vengeance! With these record temperatures, make sure to keep yourself and your family safe by drinking plenty of water, staying in cool locations and limiting your outdoor activity.
I, along with Commissioners Tick Segerblom and Marilyn Kirkpatrick, will be hosting the Clark County Summer Job Fair this Friday, July 9 at 9:00am. Dress for success and I hope to see you there. Check out the flyer below for more information.
In response to the American Rescue Plan Act ("ARPA"), Clark County will be conducting local recovery plan meetings this month. There are various topics that will be discussed in several meetings and we need your input. See below for meeting dates and topics.
As always, do not hesitate to email me at ccdistg@clarkcountynv.gov or call my office at (702) 455-5561 with any questions or concerns you may have. You can also follow me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

 Since 1985, people across the country have celebrated Park and Recreation Month in July to raise awareness of the essential services that parks and recreation provide to communities, and to recognize the more than 160,000 full-time park and recreation professionals who work along with hundreds of part-time and seasonal workers and volunteers to maintain our country’s local, state and community parks. Throughout July, Henderson is inviting the community to explore our many parks and share their experiences, memories and stories about what parks and recreation mean to them as well as why their local park and recreation professionals are important with the hashtag #OurParkAndRecStory. If you need help getting started, check out the City’s website listing 31 ways to celebrate Park and Recreation Month.
