To the editor: As a high
school educator in Logan County for 14 years and now a school board
member at LCHS, I often hope that our students learn the skills
necessary to become lifelong learners and contributing members to
our society, and specifically to their own communities.
I first met Bethany Rademaker as her teacher and have been blessed
to watch her not only contribute to her community but also become a
teacher and mentor herself. Her poise, grace under pressure,
resilience and flexibility have not only shown in her personal life
but also more prominently in her professional one.
Bethany has worked in the Logan County Courthouse in the Logan
County Clerk and Recorder's Office processing and filing records,
inputting them into software which makes them accessible online and
preparing the election process. I remember a particular instance
when a car accident resulted in Bethany wearing a leg brace and on
crutches for a long while, and she was dressed professionally,
marching as best anyone could on crutches into the Courthouse,
always with a smile on her face, in the ice and snow that winter.

She is responsible, skilled, approachable and an
excellent teacher, whether she is instructing fitness classes or
working in a volunteer year-long director position with the Miss
Logan County Fair Queen Association, assisting young ladies to
pursue public speaking skills, poise and no less than excellent
customer service.
The transition for Bethany into the Circuit Clerk's office will be
as seamless as anyone else, due to Bethany’s work ethic and
resilience as well as the utmost professionalism the incomparable
Mary Kelley will share with whomever wins this position.
I endorse Bethany Rademaker without reservation as she seeks
election to Logan County Circuit Clerk. Her professionalism, public
speaking skills, integrity and attention to detail are unmatched.
I am encouraged by young women running for our local elections,
going for the jobs they want, and promising to do right by our
community, and wish them all the best of luck.
Regardless of your choice, I hope you’ll go to the polls on March
17th.
