Winder Fire Chief Ray Mattison announced Monday that he is retiring from the post he has held since 1992.

“Today I am announcing my retirement effective July 1, 2011,” he said in a low-key announcement during the Winder City Council’s work session. “I will be changing my title from fire chief to city advocate or city cheerleader.”

For the full story, see the April 6 issue of the Barrow Journal.

Great timing. Ray is a smart man. Sure hope he is gearing up to run against the current joke of a mayor.
