Mike Henry Campaign Headquarters to Open 

Carbondale mayoral candidate Mike Henry today announced that the grand opening of his campaign headquarters will take place Thursday, March 5 from 5 to 7 p.m. With the help of many supporters, Henry, a longtime local businessman, has run his campaign out of the historic Julia Building at 212 South University Avenue, at the corner of Routes 13 and 51 in the heart of Carbondale, since announcing his candidacy.

The grand opening is a great opportunity for the public to come to the Julia Building, to meet Henry, and see what his campaign is all about.

“I’m excited to meet with voters and hear their concerns,” Henry said.

An SIU graduate, Henry raised his family here in Carbondale. He has owned and operated Henry Printing since 1972, and he wants to bring to city hall his 43 years of fiscal and managerial experience. 

Henry is running on a five-part platform: to regain control of city spending; make our city safe again; protect, preserve, and restore our neighborhoods; increase enrolment at SIU; and revitalize our downtown. He calls it “a common-sense approach to city government.” 

For more information, call Henry at (618) 924-2896, email HenryForCarbondale@gmail.com, or search for him on Facebook.
