Meagan Brame running for Esquimalt Council

This was reported in today's Times Colonist. She is a 39 and has loved i nEsquimalt for 15 years. She runs the Saxe Point Daycare

She has been involved with a lot of youth oriented organizations in Esquimalt and I assume was motivated to run because of the plans by Esquimalt to close the Archie Browning Arena.

She has a facebook group up. Here is her text from the group:

Meagan Brame is announcing her intentions to run for the Esquimalt Council this fall.

Meagan Brame is married with two teenage boys. She is an Early Childhood Educator with a BA in Child and Youth Care and owns and operates Saxe Point Daycare. She has strong ties to the community of Esquimalt and some of them include: Friends of Archie Browning Sports Centre, Macaulay PAC (past), Esquimalt Early Childhood Committee, Esquimalt Speed Skating and Esquimalt Little League (past). Within the Victoria Region, she is an active member of the Regional Child Care Council and Co-Chair of the Early Childhood Educator's of BC - Victoria Chapter.

Meagan wants to see more transparency in the municipality. She wants to offer a fresh perspective to the council and one that includes looking at options for the community that include our children, youth and famlies. She wants to see the Municipality's assets, such as the Archie Browning Sports Centre maintained, therefore keeping their value and worth for the community. It is her desire to work on the Council helping to ensure that Esquimalt residents are heard, that the community keeps the sercices it has and to promote business' to come to our fine commuity to further its growth and development.
