Anderson has experience to lead Elburn

On April 7 we will support Dave Anderson for the position of Elburn village president. Dave has been a long time ambassador for Elburn and the entire Kaneland community. He is a lifelong resident and graduate of Kaneland High School.

Having operated Gliddon's Drugstore for over 25 years just across the street from Dave and his father Leonard's grocery store, we have had the opportunity to see first hand his enthusiasm and support for our village. Dave brings decades of retail business experience, community service and government involvement with him in his run for office. He has been an active member of St. Gall's parish and the Elburn Lions Club.

As past president and three-term member of the Kaneland school board, he volunteered his time to prepare meals for the children of Kaneland grade schools at the end of the year picnics at Lions Park in Elburn. Dave has experience in local and county politics. He is a former Elburn trustee and past chairman of the Elburn Zoning Board of Appeals, and has also served on the Kane County Regional Planning Commission and the Kane County Zoning Board of Appeals.

For the past 27 years he has been on the board of Delnor Hospital ... holding the positions of chairman of the hospital board of directors for two terms and chairman of the Delnor Health System board of directors for two terms. He is currently vice-chairman of the Delcom board of directors.

Dave has been a long term supervisor of Blackberry Township, a position from which he will step down to run for village office.

Dave has the common sense, business and governmental experience to lead Elburn responsibly into the future.
