Downtown Glasgow is the heart of our community, and it's been something to see it come alive these last few years.

Every storefront that opens means someone took a chance on Glasgow. Our local business owners, the people who shop with them, and the events that bring families to the square are what make downtown feel like home.

I want to keep that going, and keep growing in a way that protects what makes Glasgow special.

Early voting is open today and tomorrow. Bring your photo ID, and I'd be grateful for your vote.

Let's keep Glasgow growing. Vote Henry Royse for Mayor.

I've learned that winning teams are never built around one person. Every position matters.

The progress in Glasgow over the last four years happened because of a lot of people: our city employees and first responders, business owners, community leaders, volunteers and neighbors who show up every day. My job has been to build the right team, trust them and give them the tools to succeed.

I'm proud of what this team has accomplished together, and I'd be grateful for your vote to keep that work going.

Let's keep Glasgow growing. Vote Henry Royse for Mayor.

This is where the next generation of Glasgow's nurses and health care workers will train.

This spring, I was proud to stand with our state and college leaders as SKYCTC broke ground on its new Glasgow Health Campus. And just down the road, WKU-Glasgow has reached a seven-year high in on-campus enrollment, with 14 programs students can finish without ever leaving town.

Our employers need skilled workers, and our young people need good careers close to home. When they can train here, work here and raise a family here, our whole community is stronger.

Creating that kind of opportunity for the next generation is one of the reasons I'm asking for your vote.

Let's keep Glasgow growing. Vote Henry Royse for Mayor.

I’ve spent more than 50 years telling Glasgow’s story. Serving as your mayor has given me the privilege of helping write its next chapter alongside you.

The progress we’ve made belongs to an entire community, our city employees, local businesses, volunteers, and neighbors who show up for Glasgow every day. That’s our home team, and I’m proud to be part of it.

We’ve built momentum, and I believe our best days are still ahead. I’m asking for your vote to continue this work together.

Let’s keep Glasgow growing. Vote Henry Royse for Mayor.

Kentucky’s music scene has something new to celebrate! 🎶

On this episode of Henry’s Dashboard Dialogues, I visit The Grove-KY to talk with Candace Barbee about Kentucky’s new Governor’s Office of Music and the opportunities it could bring to musicians, venues, and communities like Glasgow.

We also talk about The Grove’s first five years and how this backyard-style venue brings people together through live music. It’s a place we’re proud to have right here in Glasgow!

Watch the new episode!

I enjoyed joining the mayors of Carrollton, Madisonville, and Berea at the KLC Conference & Expo to talk about creative ways to fund projects in our communities.

Every city has ideas it wants to bring to life, and finding the right funding takes some creativity. I appreciated the chance to share what we’ve learned in Glasgow and hear what’s working in other Kentucky cities.
