Joe Mihm is seeking a position on the Hutchinson County Hospital District board in the May 13 election.

“As a lifelong resident of Borger I understand the need for a local hospital,” said Mihm. “I have served on various community boards learning the value of diverse opinions and cooperation.”

Mihm is seeking the position on the board which is elected by the residents in Hutchinson County Commissioner Precinct Four.

“I hope to do whatever is necessary to retain and reward the dedicated and qualified staff at GPCH,” said Mihm. “I also want to be an avenue for communication between the citizens of Precinct 4 and the hospital board. I would like to further enhance the openness of the hospital operation and finance.”

Mihm worked for Scel Energy for 30 years, and he received his education from St. John's Elementary School and Borger High School.

He has been involved in many civic endeavors, including United Way, Friends of Lake Meredith, Relay for Life, Knights of Columbas, IBEW Local 602, Borger Independent School District's District Facilities Committee and Boy Scouts.

He and his wife Jeri are parents of Kevin, 22, who is a student at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Okla.
