Dear DANIEL,
This morning, I'm beginning a tour of several communities on the shores of the Great Lakes to highlight the importance of the Lakes to Michigan's economy and to our quality of life. As Lt. Governor and as the Chair of the Great Lakes Commission, protecting and preserving the Lakes are among my highest priorities.
I'll be starting in Port Huron this morning, then will be headed to the Lake Michigan shoreline. Over the next several days, I'll be in Benton Harbor, St. Joseph, Muskegon and Traverse City, where I'll be talking with local leaders, residents and the media about the Lakes. Local Democrats will be getting together in several of those communities in the evenings, so I'll also have a chance to visit with activists who are going to be working hard to keep Michigan blue this year.
I'll be blogging each day from the road. My first blog entry is posted
here. I hope you'll join me (in a virtual way) for a few minutes every day by reading my daily entries. I also hope you'll give me your thoughts about how we should best protect the Great Lakes (and our other critical water resources) by commenting on my blog posts or by e-mailing me at johncherry@jennifergranholm.com.
Thank you.
Warmest regards,
Lt. Governor John Cherry
