Camp can work with others, get things done

| October 24, 2013 7:00 AM

“Hey, Bob … I have an idea …”

Every time Bob Camp, one of the Bonner County Historical Society & Museum’s valued board members and volunteers, comes into the museum that is what he hears from me …”I have an idea.” And every time he hears me say this, he listens intently, contemplates the scenario, and then manages to toss back an idea that makes my original idea so much better.

Bob always greets everyone with a friendly smile. Working with Bob over the last year, I have learned that Bob does his homework, gets pertinent facts, analyzes the facts from different perspectives and makes practical recommendations. But what amazes me the most about Bob is his ability to present an opposing view without alienating others. He has the ability to work together and get things done.

As we draw closer to the fall elections, signs of support have popped up around the city, including one for Bob Camp who is seeking an elected position with our city council. I am proud to be in the company of those who know and support Bob Camp for council.

To learn more about Bob, I suggest you join him for a cup of coffee at the museum and talk about what we can do together to improve our city.
