One of our classmates, Jim Pettit , has "thrown his hat in the ring " to run for the mayor of the City of Elkhart.  Jim ,  currently a Elkhart City Councilman , announced his plans to campaign for office  at a news conference on September 14th.     Click here for the full speech.

   Jim has a campaign web site set up  at   http://www.pettit4mayor.com     and anyone interested in contributing to his campaign fund should send  checks made payable to "Pettit for Mayor Committee"   to Don Ross, Treasurer, 1600 E. Jackson Blvd.. Elkhart, IN 46516
