From the Desk of Former Mayor Malinda Miles

It has been two years since I decided to remove myself from the political scene in Mount Rainier, MD, Prince George's County, and the State of Maryland. Holding the lofty position of Mayor was such a great honor, but as the years flew by, I realized that it was time to do something else -- get a life.! I did, and still continue to provide resources to the residents through The Front Porch Ministries (TFPM). Real people pass through The Front Porch Ministries weekly. LIFE is good.

Personal Safety Training for Mount Rainier Senior 62 and Over

Chief Michael Scott will host and his staff will provide safety training for seniors participating in the "Whatcha Doin Seniors Club." This event will include personal safety training with demonstrations and lunch. This event is scheduled for June 27 from 10:00am until 1:30pm.

To make this an effective event for our seniors, some of our officers will also be available to meet the seniors, and help them get acquainted with who’s assigned to various areas of the City. The event will also include a walk through the police station, an introduction to all civilian staff, and any other activities that the Chief may deem appropriate.

Transportation to and from this event will also be part of this event using the City's Call-a-Bus and Police Van, if needed.

Please contact Janis Lomax by close of business Friday, June 25, 2014 if you wish to participate in this event. There is no cost for participation.

Mayor Malinda Miles

As a long-time resident of Mount Rainier and a homeowner, it is important to me that municipal government be inclusive of all of its residents. It is equally important that information be communicated through all possible channel so that residents can get involved. It is also important for residents to volunteer and serve on committees, commissions, boards and task forces. I truly believe that municipal government is the government closes to the people, and as such should be easily accessible. This BLOG is another effort to reach out to the residents of Mount Rainier.
