Capitol For A Day

Governor Otter Declares Emmett, Idaho Capitol for a Day

Emmett--Governor Butch Otter took his staff on the road and declared Emmett, Idaho Capitol for the Day. The road trip is a way to get the Governor and his cabinet out of the Statehouse and mix with grassroot Idahoans.

The first stop was the Gem County Fair breakfast at the park where the Governor, First Lady and the Cabinet not only had a delicious breakfast but had time to meet and greet the locals.

Later in the morning the Gubernatorial road show continued at the elementary school where State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Luna, Idaho Transportation Director Pam Lowe and members of the cabinet, fielded questions from the public.

"It is a tonic for me and it's a tonic for our cabinet members. When we were first soliciting there was some 'well, maybe,' now we get full support from all cabinet members," said Otter.
