Hello,
My name is Craig Arthur, and I am running as a Republican candidate for County Commissioner. I was born and raised here in Calhoun County. From an early age, I was taught to treat others the way God treats us. This is the most important thing in life after salvation. I have been blessed with amazing role models who have taught me not only to treat all people with dignity but also the value of an honest day’s work.
I graduated from Calhoun County with high honors in 2005. I later attended WVUP and Marietta College before finally landing at Glenville State College. I graduated from Glenville State College in 2012 with a bachelor’s in science and a minor in psychology. I earned my teaching certification from Wheeling Jesuit University shortly thereafter. I am certified to teach chemistry, biology, physical science, forensic science, and AC Energy and Power.
By working in my home school for several years, I have made connections and acquired skill sets I believe will be beneficial for this county. For example, I have worked with several state and local officials to acquire numerous grants to improve the opportunities offered for students of Calhoun County.
I believe our students and economy should be our top priorities. If we don’t provide new opportunities and improve our economy, how long should we really expect our young people to stay in Calhoun County? If elected commissioner, I promise I will use my connections and skills to improve opportunities for good jobs, increase activities for our youth, work to increase good high speed internet services, work to increase city water for more citizens, and most importantly work to grow small businesses. As always I will work to accomplish this by treatingeveryone fairly and honestly, listening to the concerns of citizens, and being transparent with how people’s hard earned tax dollars are being spent.
We need to recognize the great people we have in this county. We have so much untapped potential. This needs to be taken advantage of to improve the lives of all the citizens in this great place. I am excited to collaborate with the exciting things the 1982 foundation is currently doing for all of the citizens of our county. Calhoun County will always have a special place in my heart.
I respectfully ask for your vote in May for a positive change for Calhoun County. Together we will change this county for the better!
Thank you and God Bless,
Craig Arthur- Forever Focused on Our Future.
