“This component of the ‘Get to know the Metro-East’ campaign does a wonderful job promoting some of the young professionals making a big difference in our communities,” said Carol Bartle, project manager of the Get to know m.e. campaign. “They are incredible resources who will eventually be responsible for continuing the mission of our campaign and the tradition of community pride in the Metro-East. By adding their voices to the conversation, we will ensure a thriving future for the place we call home.”

“Get to know m.e. – The Metro-East. I live here. I love it” campaign was created to bring the Metro-East communities together, embracing the people who live and work here and the many attractions that we all share and enjoy.
