We are Team Tom!

August 9, 2024

I’m humbled and honored to have earned enough votes to win the primary. I know I have a lot of work still ahead of me, but this week's results have filled me with energy and excitement to start the next phase of this process. In the next three months I’m looking forward to sharing my vision for Mason County with even more voters. I’m excited for the chance to get to know and speak with a broader audience even beyond my own district. I want to better understand what our community wants from local government and to better understand how I can be of most help to them. I’m especially motivated to do what I can to re-open the conversation and possibility of bringing back a county fair, and to be able to help create a permanent home for it and for other large events like Oysterfest. Today I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue on, but now our work really begins.

How can you help?

1. If you are able to, please donate here to our campaign.

2. We have signs and flyers already made, and we plan to get more shirts made soon. Just let us know how we can get you whatever materials you need to help spread our message.

3. I'm eager to book as many meet and greets, coffee hours, and social gatherings as we can to reach a new and broader audience, and we’re going to need to plan fundraising events to support new advertising efforts. So if you have an event in mind or would consider hosting one, please reach out to us.

4. Simply share our Facebook page and website.

5. Share our story. When you hear conversations about county happenings, issues or concerns, let me know. Talk to your friends about this campaign. Volunteer with us. Be a part of our journey, and help us get our story out to the rest of our community.

This has been a very real grassroots effort, and that's how I'd like to keep it. Mason County is made up of people just like you and me. I brew beer and make bbq, coach kid’s basketball, take my daughter to cheer practice and dance lessons right here in Mason County. We, the citizens of Mason County know what it’s like to live here and to work here for and with our neighbors. We also understand that we must work together to push us forward to a healthier, happier and safer way of life. I very much believe this can happen, and I promise to do everything in my power to be the kind of leader that we need and deserve right now. It is my hope and goal to be the friend and colleague that can repair our divides and bring a sense of kindness, compassion and comradery back to our community. Please support me in this effort.

Sincerely,

Tom Beben
