Adam Lowe, Oakham, mayor’s annual reception to celebrate the work of people who have contributed in the community.
Loyd Grossman Joy Everitt
Last week Oakham's Mayor rewarded the councils old friends at the mayor’s annual reception to celebrate the work of people who have contributed in the community.
Oakham Mayor Adam Lowe
One of the most deserving recognitions went to Joy Everrit who has organised the Oakham Festival for the
last thirteen years, it's dwindling success should not be blamed on her, this was caused by large organisation
withdrawing funding, Joy is giving up this year but I am sure she will find another project.
I hope the Oakham festival does not fold like the carnival sadly did. Such a pity the committee fell out and
Councillor Dodds gave the public's money away. A bigger pity the town council gave away the money with no restrictions attached
Cllr Dodds left
Also Oakham in Bloom was rewarded as it is every year. would be nice to see those who actually carry out the manual work rewarded instead of the hangers on who enjoy these sort of council jollies.
Sarah Outen who has not been well since her second attempt to travel around the world, has still raised a lot of money for charity well done.
Coun Lowe’s final award recognised 93-year-old Bill Schofield, a Second World War veteran and former Oakham mayor, for his services to country, county and town. Coun Lowe presented Bill with his award at his home.
I look forward to the day when we have a Mayor who looks further than those the council supports, there
are many unrecognised people in our town who do a lot of good and receive no recognition Maybe that's the way they like it?

A message, oakham mayor, adam lowe, skatepark?
As my first month draws to a close since I became chairman of oakham town council and mayor of oakham I wanted to share what has been an eventful month.
My plans to raise the profile of rutland reminders have begun with a tea dance being planned for early July.
Rutland reminders is a group of local volunteers formed in 2010 to offer therapy through singing for people with dementia.
I said I wanted to deal with 3 issues the first issue was to rebuild our skatepark it was damaged and unusable when the contractor was on site most recently I had an opportunity to see the full extent of the damage to the sub frame.
Fortunately he was able to carry out a essential repairs and attach new skate light sheets so that once again we have a fully functioning and I might add a well used state park.
I would like very much to look beyond these repairs and I am asking for feedback what do as skate borders want?
If you have any ideas or suggestions on the skatepark or indeed if anyone has any views they want to share with the council please write to the town council:
We shall try and deliver if we do not know though we are totally in the dark.
So my first month as your representative I attended the civic parade in stamford an opportunity to meet many have a new mayors.
The presentation by the army engagement group at saint georges barracks was very informative and with an increased military presence in rutland the integration and working in partnerships can only make rutland a better place to live and work.
On the subject of the military I also met several ex servicemen and women at the launch of the rutland community spirit social club mostly men on mondays, an orgnaization I am happy to support not least because I do some volunteer work with rutland community spirit.
Another highlight of the month has to be the crowning of the may king and queen at catmose primary, a fantastic school with talented children.
As the month drew to a close I was invited to open the garden of ############# in Lonsdale Way and visit the gardens of mr and mrs merchant and mr and mrs wolloff - three fan tastic gardens open to the public over the bank holiday weekend in aid of the Rutland and melton cancer support group.
My mum was topped off with my attendance at the high sheriff of rutlands garden party, an opportunity to build relationships and discuss what 2013 holds in store.
1 of these discussion points was another of my objectives. Oakham town council has twelve seats with 3 vacancies and to that end my desire to fill them is where you come in.
1 might believe my month is pretty full and that having a full time job makes it impossible to be a councillor.
That is not the case and now with the vacancies being notified on all of the three vacant seats this is the time to throw your hat in the ring.
Check out the notice board or enquire at the town council office in the victoria hall.
3 years ago I joined the council thinking it was just planning meetings and christmas lights ( these are on the June 12th Agenda (PDF, 79 Kb) by the way).
Here I am 3 years mater having gone through 1 election meeting and working with great people who like me have one objective serving the people of oakham being part of the solution not part of the problem is another way of saying it.
To put it simply if you have good ideas and want to try and make a difference why not channel them through oakham town council, there are only 3 seats and honestly I'm no oakham have a lot more than 3 candidates who could fill them.
1 month down what does tomorrow hold honestly I can't wait to find out.

Councillor Adam Lowe, Oakham Town Council, Says Sorry
"Sorry" It does not happen often but when the word sorry is used it helps, even if it is said after you make a standards complaint.
Councillor Adam Lowe likes to describe me as everything from an arsehole and now a Prat.
I decided enough was enough and made him aware I was going to make a standards complaint.

"I was wrong to refer to you as a 'prat', this is a personal opinion that should remain so and as such I retract the 'comment' and in the event you are upset I apologise for you feeling that way.
I have only ever tried to build bridges with you and try to justify your arguments".
An interesting apology, on e which I have noted. extraordinary when you think this man is also a Special Constable with Leicestershire Police, Then I have come to learn and understand this what is to be expected of Inspector Monks legacy.......
Thanks Adam!
