I met Senator Eric Johnson last night

Last night was an interesting evening at the Ravinia Club.

A large crowd turned out to meet State Senator Eric Johnson, possibly the next Govenor of Georgia.

City Councilman Danny Ross, Senator Dan Weber, Representative Fran Millar, Sandy Springs Mayor Eva Galambas and Dunwoody Mayor Ken Wright all spoke about Senator Eric Johnson's instrumental role in both Dunwoody and Sandy Springs achieving Citihood.

Luckily, Senator Johnson's vision for self determination doesn't end with cities. Schools are another area where he feels the community and parents should be pivotal in determining the educational needs of their children. Senator Eric Johnson as the Senate President Pro Tempore was a huge proponent of Senator Weber's legislation on the formation of Charter Clusters, and created Georgia's Special Needs Scholarships, the States first voucher program for education.

Afterwards, we hurried back to Wynterhall Swim and Tennis Club to see the end of our Dual Dive meet with Mill Glen and Smokerise. The kids dove great and WSTC won both meets.

  1. Hello Tammy. Well put. Senator Eric Johnson is a believer in personal rights and individual self determination - for taxpayers, parents, and students as well as neighborhoods and cities.
