FLIPPABLE: Eric Genrich for Green Bay, WI Mayor
I am a son of Green Bay. I am someone who was born on Biemeret and raised on Emilie St., who roller-skated at St. Marys Roller Rink and saved up my newspaper money for a caramel malt at Hansens. I played Little League at the end of Lawe St. and football at Farlin Park. This community is in my bones - it has made me who I am. And it continues to shape me and my family: my wife, Emily, and our two children, Henry and Amelia, who are students in Green Bays public schools.
If theres such a thing as a typical politician, Im not it. My dad was trained as a social worker and my mom as a nurse. My wifes a special education teacher, and before entering the state Assembly, I worked for the Brown County Library. Service is all around me, and its how I define myself. This spirit of service, this call to serve is what animates me, and it is what drives me to pursue the office of mayor.
There is so much work to be done to move our city forward, to construct a genuine community, to achieve the city we all deserve. The future is within our grasp. If we all reach together we can take Green Bay from good to great.
