•Do you remember Easton Wolfe? He graduated from Shepherd high School last year to go to Drake University in Iowa. He was president of the Student Council and has continued to make his mark in his new life. Easton is studying politics and became involved with Des Moines political scene. He impressed people so much that he was asked to run for the city council and was voted in. He's the youngest Council member ever there. Is also chapter president for the Drake dream for America.
Easton Wolfe says he is focusing on the youth mental plan, public school funding and community service in his new life. He also ran unopposed as the democratic nominee for Iowa's third congressional district. He won. He will be sworn in next session. It is remarkable that he advanced so quickly but he is well able to express opinions for young people. Shepherd high School will be very proud as well all of us who know him.
