Summer always brings out the best in Walworth! The uniqueness of being a small, interconnected community with so many friendly faces and familiar encounters shines that much brighter as we get out and enjoy the different festivals, events, and gatherings the Summer brings.
As the weather warms and the days grow longer, there's no better time to stay active and connect with friends while visiting our wonderful parks, outdoor facilities, and trails, or enjoy a peaceful Tuesday afternoon at the Ginegaw Park Farmers' Market. Walworth's Summer Concert Series presents the perfect framework to spend an evening amongst friends while enjoying the best in local music and food, and the annual Lions Club Festival in the Park celebrates the season with family fun, an outdoor summer movie, and fireworks, while the parade each year pays homage to our areas roots and traditions.
I look forward to celebrating and enjoying all Walworth has to offer this Summer in the company of all of you!

Laura is a multi-generational Walworth resident who is deeply invested in the future of our town. Her mother Peg Churchill was actually the FIRST Woman to serve as Supervisor for the Town of Walworth. Laura and her children intend to continue to grow their roots here and contribute to the town's growth, overall economic development, and community safety.
Laura comes to us with a plethora of experience from her time serving as a Wayne County Sheriff, spending over 20 years on the force before honorably retiring from the job in 2024. Laura brings to Walworth an extensive background of training and public service with her - with training in anti-bias policing, ethics, crisis intervention, stress management, and more.
She has done research data analysis and community outreach through the local Teamsters 118 all while making sure her girls are thriving in anything they put their mind to. She instilled in her daughters the drive to think of others before themselves and to go out into the world with good intentions - creating leaders in their own rights in each of them.
Laura stresses honesty, morals, and integrity, believes our government should be an open book, and that all employees of our town, whether elected or not, should embrace these principals and be held to these same standards.
