GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB IS THRILLED TO SUPPORT ITS 1st VP, LINDA MITCHELL, in the Annual Lutz Guv’na Race. The club is all in behind its gal and will support her to the hilt. As Linda says, she “is in it to WIN it”! The other candidates are Joann LaChance, owner of Pinch-a-Penny and Ron Brooklyn, owner of Hard Rock Landscaping. Linda Mitchell has retired from 25 years of teaching in 8th grade middle school and has been involved in everything Lutz for decades, from kids’ sports, scouting, community service and mentoring/advising the Little Women of Lutz, a teen group under the auspices of the Woman’s Club.
Linda killed it at the crazy Kick-Off debate and won a $100 prize for having the most supporters in attendance. However, In the cow pie throwing contest, she was outthrown.
The Lutz Guv’na Race is a decades-long family-friendly, whacky, fun annual event meant to raise funds for the community non-profits, while having a great time. The winner will be determined by which candidate raises the most funds by begging, borrowing or stealing (in a good-natured way) and will be ‘inaugurated’ at the Lutz 4th of July Celebration.
