We had a couple of good crowds on hand for the recent candidate forums.
Republican candidates for county commission Quincee Messersmith and Carrie Hughes shared their views at the library on July 28. There were about 40 people there.
And last week we hosted the Republican and Democrat candidates for Congress, seeking the district 2 seat currently held by retiring U.S. Rep. Neal Dunn. About 60 people turned out for that one.

Special to The Sun
I am running for Congress in Florida’s 2nd Congressional District and I am a six-generation Floridian from right here in the Big Bend/Panhandle area. I am not a political insider, a lawyer or a career politician. I have been a public servant who has served Florida’s 2nd congressional district for nearly 40 years as a law enforcement officer, retiring as Chief Deputy.

from Superintendent of Schools Rick Myhre
Greetings Wakulla County,
All communities provide public education, but few support and cherish their schools the way Wakulla County does. Perhaps that is because, for so many of us, these schools helped shape who we are, and we have purposefully chosen to raise our children here as well.
