Happy New Year! As I begin this new venture, I’d like to start by thanking our community for all of your support! I have met many wonderful people in my first weeks as your Supervisor and appreciate all those who stopped in to say hello or ask a question.
The Town Employees are absolutely phenomenal, and while transition can be tough, we are working hard. So far, it has been smooth!
I am looking forward to warmer weather around the corner (hopefully!) and seeing kids out on the fields and in the parks. The onset of Spring is always a special time in our community.
Thank you for your patience while I dive in here at the Town and get my footing in my role at the County level. I appreciate your kind words and support.
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.
