September Local Business Highlight
For my September 2024 local business highlight, I chose to honor Poolside Pools and Spas because of their contributions to our community and their continued effort to provide great service to our area.
Poolside Pools and Spas was founded by owners Jim and Cary McCue in 2006. They offer a number of different services, including inground pools, saunas, and more.
Jim and Cary are dedicated to our community. They are active with our local Boy Scout troops, support school boosters and fundraisers, and assist with hospice fundraisers. Their work has made a real difference in our community, and I am grateful for all that they have done to uplift others.

Community Outreach
My staff attended the Association of Equipment Manufacturers express bus tour at the Sewer Equipment plant in Dixon. Such a great recognition of our manufacturing right here in the 74th District!

I co-hosted a meet and greet with the new Illinois Department of Transportation Region 2 engineer Trisha Thompson and local transportation officials to discuss infrastructure and transportation in our communities. Thanks to State Representative Jeff Keicher and Illinois House Minority Leader Tony McCombie for joining me in hosting this event!
My staff attended the VisitNW Illinois annual meeting. They discussed what makes our area great and their upcoming plans to attract more visitors!
