Mayor People’s stirring comments about his selection:

“I chose this particular mask over the others because it speaks to me on several levels.

1-The first truck I ever drove was a 1953 GMC pickup that looked a lot like this one. [nostalgia]

2-I like Old Glory; she always represents the best available even if we were/are not perfect. [patriotic]

3-The greenery around the flag and truck. [the promise of growth and a future]

4-The protective mask itself. [the American ideal of a better future if we prepare and work together]”

Tryon Dog Mayor Rusty Bunshine’s entourage sent over a statement regarding the selection of week 10 pantone color chart facemask by Penny Kessler:

“The colors of life’s palette are varied and equally important. The different hues remind him of the range of emotions that all humans feel.”

​Week 10 Prize Package is a Tryon Theatre gift bundle.
