Thank You City of Covington

Former Councilwoman Patricia Fuhrmann Clanton requested that we print a thank you letter to the City of Covington for the fantastic job that was accomplished with the City’s year-long Bicentennial Celebration, and we were happy to oblige:

The activities held in honor of Covington’s Bicentennial Celebration have been packed with the best that Covington has to offer. From music of all kinds to interesting Home Tours. From talks on the history of our wonderful community to various other functions such as the parade, the art shows, the photography show, and the Great Car Race.

From Whisperings in the Cemetery to the Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast. From the old fashioned picnic to the grand finale of a spectacular fire works display in Bogue Falaya Park. It seems that there was something for everyone and the citizens of Covington put their best foot forward.

Thank you and kudos to the Bicentennial Committee and thank you and kudos to the employees of the City that worked to keep up with all of the many activities through out many months.  Thank you to Mayor Cooper and all of our Council members for their participation at all of the special events.  Thank you to the business community and the many organizations that joined in and gave their support to the programs presented through out the past year.

Everyone working together is what makes Covington the special place that it is and it is what made our City’s 200th birthday the successful celebration that it was. Happy Birthday Covington and best wishes that it may continue to be the very special place that it has always been.
