Kate has personally implemented and raised all funds for the Rogers High
School Horticulture Program. Students are paid $8-$10 an hour and
placed with a mentor for summer employment. Many of the students have
continued on to college to study Horticulture as landscape architects or
Master Gardeners. In October they will plant 1,000 daffodil bulbs with
donated funds raised by Kate on the grounds of Rogers High School.

Hi, this is former mayor, Richard Sardella. This election, I urge
third ward voters to join me in support of Kate Leonard.
I had the honor of serving with Kate for five years and I know first
hand how hard she has worked, not only for the residents of the third
ward, but for all of us in Newport.
She has been successful in balancing the needs of her constituents with
those of the business community.
Look at some of the things she has done these past two years.
She blocked a commercial development at Fort Adams. She has worked
with the business community to promote "Thursdays on Thames".
She has voted against excessive pay increases.
And she has focused on fiscal responsibility to keep the city budget
under control.
In these uncertain times, we need someone with Kate's experience and
drive to keep us afloat.
On November 4th, please cast your vote for Third Ward Councillor,
Kate Leonard
